1. Benefits for Tenants

Housing program tenants who are renting in select communities with few homeownership options will have the opportunity to purchase their home (subject to Saskatchewan Housing Corporation approval).

Top

2. Who Can Purchase a Home

You may be able to purchase a home if you:

  • are a Housing program tenant;
  • are able to obtain financing to purchase a home; and
  • pay any arrears owed to a housing authority or Saskatchewan Housing Corporation before the sale is finalized.

Homes are for sale in Northern Administration District (NAD) communities that have limited housing options. This initiative is not available in La Ronge, Air Ronge, Creighton or Denare Beach, as these communities have active housing markets.
