Summary

About Catalyst Community Developments Society

Catalyst Community Developments is a non-profit social-purpose real estate developer founded in 2013 that builds and operates mixed-income rental housing in BC. Its portfolio includes properties in Vancouver, Burnaby, North Vancouver, Victoria, and Sooke, with featured developments at Timberline I (89 units), 6889 Royal Oak (134 units), and 7392 16th Avenue (203 units). Catalyst structures buildings with a mix of RGI, below-market (BMR), and moderate-income (LEM) units, partnering with municipalities, faith communities, and BC Housing. Renters apply directly to the property leasing team for each Catalyst building rather than through a centralized registry. The organization is a leading partner in BC Builds and city-led inclusionary zoning programs.
