🏡 Faster Approvals = More Affordable Homes 🕒💰 If you’ve ever wondered whether reducing approval times can truly impact housing affordability, Marshall Homes’ latest project in The Corporation of the Town of Ajax is proof it can. As this article in the Toronto Sun outlines, Time, a thoughtfully designed stacked townhome community, was approved in just five weeks thanks to decisive political will and collaboration between the public and private sectors. With 81 units priced from the low to high $600,000s — well below the area’s $851,733 average for attached homes — this project demonstrates how speeding up approvals can pass real savings to homebuyers. Faster approvals also mean Marshall Homes can deliver occupancies as early as February 2026. 🚀 When housing approval times are reduced, developers avoid prolonged financing costs and can deliver more affordable homes. Time stands as a shining example of what’s possible when innovation and political leadership align. We hope this inspires more action to unlock housing affordability. What are your thoughts on the relationship between faster approvals and housing costs? Let us know in the comments! https://lnkd.in/gS-djQxi #housing #policy #solutions #canada #attainablehomes
