Starlight Investments

Starlight Investments was recently featured in the National Post following the release of Budget 2025, highlighting the federal government’s plans to increase housing supply and accelerate construction across Canada. With initiatives like Build Canada Homes and the Build Communities Strong Fund, Budget 2025 lays the groundwork for a coordinated approach to address Canada’s housing crisis. Starlight remains focused on leveraging our development experience, infill strategy, and pipeline to partner with all levels of government to increase the delivery of much-needed purpose-built rental housing across Canada.  “As the federal government launches Build Canada Homes to scale housing supply, Starlight Investments stands ready as a delivery partner with deep experience in developing housing. From accelerating construction timelines to preserving aging stock, we’re implementing the very measures Budget 2025 seeks to scale nationwide.” — Howard Paskowitz , Vice President, Development and Public Affairs, Starlight Investments Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gbibbAMr #HousingSupply #StarlightDevelopments #PurposeBuiltRentals #InvestWithImpact #HousingPolicy Peter Kuretzky | Michael Egden | Anne Messore | David Woo, MEng, PE, SE | Talia Schwebel | Salima Kheraj | Gwen McGuire
