First time buyer grant

Maybe someone here can help me.
My son and daughter inlaw are looking to purchase their first and they heard somewhere that there is a grant available from the canadian or provincial governments for first time home buyers , I haven’t been able to find anything about it .
Maybe someone on this board knows were they can get any info , THANKS.

Fred, try the cmhc website, I think it is www.cmhc.ca
They should have some money I gave them $7000 when I bought my house

Charles : You gave “them” 7000 dollars , what the h### for ?

6% of my purchase price,I think that was it and I had less than 20% down so they got me good, incase the bank has to forclose it is insurance for them,great gig huh?

Great country we live in isn’t it . (**it actually is a great country) **it just has to many people filling their pockets with our hard earned money , that’s why I’m searching for this grant stuff. I’m gonna try CMHC. THANKS.

When I bought my first home there was a system in place that would refund your Land Transfer Tax if you bought a brand new home as a first time buyer, it did not apply to resale homes. I do not know if this program still exists as this was about ten years ago.

The program to which you are referring is the Canada-Ontario
Affordable Housing Program (COAHP). Cities in Ontario have been issued grants which they then distribute to qualified purchasers. In Hamilton, the amount that will be distributed is $7,262.

This is an interest free loan. It must be repaid if the home is owned for less than 20 years. If the house is sold before the 20 year mark, the homeowner must repay the original loan amount plus 5% of any appreciation in value of the home. If the house is owned for 20+ years, the loan is forgiven.

To qualify, you must be over 18 years of age, have a combined family income of less than $55,900, purchase a house valued at $185,500 or less and qualify for a mortgage.

I suggest that you call your city hall or municipal offices and ask if your community is participating in the project.

It probably was not obvious in my previous post, so to clarify, each qualifying home buyer will receive $7,262 (in Hamilton). The total grant money that the city has received will provide grants to approximately 200 new home buyers.

In Romania we don’t have grants for housing anymore now that we are not a communist controlled country.

My real name is Raymond Wand, from Home Inspection Services. I give Blow Jobs to any dissatisfied clients. I also offer baby sitting services [boy’s only] to all clients.

I have been expelled from NACHI, ASHI and OAHI for ethics violations. I serve on the Heritage Committee of the Town of Caledon [my days are numbered with the town] as of today. I pray that Mario doesn’t follow through with his promise and e-mail the committee. There is a women on the committee that I like, and she has a small child [a boy] and I’m hoping that they will live with me on my farm.

I would like to apologize to all NACHI members for my recent and past posts on this MB.
I promise it will not happen again. Please forgive me.

Regards

Once again I don’t understand your mental state. You seem to have diminished capacity!

Mario Are you proud of yourself. Looks like things are backfiring on you! More to come and more friends to lose. You never should have started slandering my name as you did when things were nice and quiet. Remember you started this once again when you referred to me by name as an SOB in your replies to Char Cooke. You really are thick!

You are a son of a bitch!

Mario Thats not nice. That was the other thing I found out about you when I spoke to someone that knows you. They said you had a limited vocabulary.
