The City of Calgary is proud to introduce the Secondary Suite Incentive Program, an initiative aimed at encouraging safe and accessible housing for Calgarians.
The Secondary Suite Incentive Program is a component of ‘Home is Here: The City of Calgary’s Housing Strategy.’ It provides a qualifying homeowner up to $10,000 to cover a portion of construction costs to develop and register a safe secondary suite.
The incentive applies to suites built within the main dwelling, not for backyard or detached suites. Applications are limited to one per person and you must own the property through the entire process. Qualifying homeowners with an active building permit can apply for the following:
- Egress windows
- Hardwired and interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
- Protected exiting
- Smoke-tight barriers
- Split heat/separate air
Additional funding is available for accessibility and energy efficiency
The Secondary Suite Incentive Program is open for applications. Learn more about the program or apply at calgary.ca/suite-incentive.
