Housing Programs for Landlords

We offer a range of programs to help landlords who provide affordable living.

Home Adaptations for Seniors' Independence

This program helps homeowners and landlords pay for home adaptations so seniors with lower incomes can stay in their homes independently for longer periods of time. 
A loan of up to $3,500 is available, and does not need to be repaid as long as the landlord agrees that the unit will be occupied for a minimum of six months. The landlord must also agree that rent will not increase as as result of the modifications. Repayable loans are not available.

Rooming House Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program

This program provides financial assistance to owners of rooming houses with accessible rent for people with lower incomes. This program is available across Nova Scotia.

Rental Residential Rehabilitation Assistance Program

This program provides financial assistance to landlords to assist in upgrading the condition of existing self contained units to preserve rental affordability for low-income tenants.
