The project

The densest expression of the model: homes stacked above the institution they are built around, in one of the fastest-growing municipalities in the country.

Why here

Surrey's growth has outpaced its housing supply for a decade. Density beside an existing institution is how you add homes without asking a community to move.

What investing means, and does not mean. Subscribing to the Trust is not the purchase of a unit in this building and does not give you a right to live in it, or any claim over this specific property. You are subscribing for units in a trust that invests across the Tawakkul Master Limited Partnerships. Specific holdings are set out in the Offering Memorandum.

Two ways to be part of this

Invest in it, or give to it.

These are different things and they are not in competition. One is a subscription for units, reviewed by a registered dealer, on which you can make or lose money. The other is a gift to the institution, which you will not get back and which is not an investment at all.

Invest Subscribe for units of Tawakkul REIT
  • From $500, in an RRSP, TFSA, FHSA, RESP or outside a plan
  • You own a fractional interest in the Trust, not in this building
  • Reviewed and approved by Drake Financial, a registered dealer
  • You can make money. You can also lose all of it.

Give Support Masjid Anwar-e-Madina directly
  • A gift to the institution itself, not to the fund
  • Tawakkul takes nothing from it and does not handle it
  • Where the organisation is a registered charity, it can issue a receipt
  • Sadaqah jariyah — it is not expected to come back to you
How the partnership works Or call and we will put you in touch
One thing to be clear about, because it is the most common misunderstanding. Subscribing does not buy you a unit in this building, a right to live in it, or any claim over it. It buys units in the Trust, which invests across several developments. If what you want is to help this specific institution, give — that does exactly what you intend, and a subscription does not.

For residents, not investors

Everything above is written for someone deciding whether to invest. This part is for someone deciding where to live. They are different questions and they deserve different answers — you do not have to invest a dollar to be on this list, and investing does not move you up it.

Surrey · Income limits effective 1 December 2025 · rents from the October 2025 survey

What the authorities say affordable rent is here.

BC Housing and CMHC
Published affordable rent and income figures for Surrey
HomeMonthly rentMaximum household income
Studio or one bedroom$1,602$58,000
Two bedroom$1,872$72,000
Three bedroom$1,956$86,000
Four or more bedrooms—$107,500

BC Housing's Housing Income Limits are the province's eligibility ceiling for many affordable housing programmes. Surrey falls inside the Vancouver limit area.

BC Housing does not publish a separate studio limit — its lowest band is “one bedroom or less”.

These are the figures the authority named beside them has published. They are not Tawakkul rents. Rents at this project have not been set, and they will be published before anyone is asked to apply.

The City of Surrey does not publish its own maximum rents by unit type. Its Affordable Housing Strategy defines affordable rental by reference to median market rents, and its housing agreements defer to CMHC's methodology. So the rent column above is CMHC's observed average market rent for Surrey, which is a reference point rather than a cap — a below-market unit would be priced under it.

British Columbia's own definition is the national one: housing is affordable when it takes 30% or less of a household's gross income.

Tell us what you would need.

We will write to you when rents are set, when the design is settled and when applications open. No obligation, and nothing to pay.

Or call 905 949 9119 and ask for the housing team.

How affordability works, in full

Anything that would matter to you? Choose any.

Only because affordable homes carry income ceilings set by the municipality, not by us. If your household is above the ceiling we would rather tell you now than let you wait for a letter that says no. Leave it blank if you would rather.

This is not an application and it does not hold a place for you. There is no queue yet, and nobody who joins this list is ahead of anybody else. It means we have your name, and that you hear from us before anyone else does.
