The Region of Waterloo is offering a program on behalf of the Provincial and Federal governments. This program provides low to moderate-income households with INTEREST FREE down payment assistance loans of 5% (up to a maximum of $10,000) of the purchase price of a home.

Completed applications must be received by the Region's Housing Division by 4pm on February 22. Starting in March, 133 households will be selected to receive down payment assistance through this program. Once selected, households have 90 days to obtain an accepted offer to purchase a new or resale home in Waterloo Region that has a maximum purchase price of $208,000.

What does this mean for homebuyers??

This is great news for first time home buyers!

Effective December 13th, 2007, the government has expanded it's Land Transfer Refund Program to include "first time home buyer's" of "Resale" homes. Previously, first time home buyer's would qualify for a refund for land transfer tax paid ONLY WHEN they purchased a NEW home.

What this means now is that if you are a first time home buyer & you are purchasing a RESALE home, you will qualify for a tax refund from the government for the land transfer tax paid up to $2000!

To Qualify:

You must be a first time home buyer
Your Agreement of Purchase & Sale must be dated after Dec. 13th, 2007.
