Second Residential Unit Affordable Housing Grant Program Kingston-Ontario

The City is offering the Second Residential Unit Affordable Housing Grant Program to stimulate homeowner investment to create alternate housing options within the City.

To complement existing affordable housing programs available within the City, the grant program is now being offered to allow homeowners to participate in the creation of additional modestly priced rental housing within the City.

Participants of the program must commit to renting the suite:

The program includes two different funding streams:
