A crush of prospective tenants is expected to queue up Saturday for more than a chance to land one of 156 new rental units in a Langford development. Some may line up for a chance to buy a new home.
As an enticement to attract interest in The Crossing — a purpose-built rental building at the Belmont Residences project on Reunion Avenue near Kelly Road — developer Ledcor is offering a rent-to-own program to prospective renters.
It’s an investment in the community, said Ledcor’s Eric Gerlach. “One of the best ways to encourage new buyers is to work with people already living in the area. … We looked for what would help and encourage them,” said the Belmont’s vice-president of development.
