Nova Scotia Incentive Program

Secondary and Backyard Suite Funding

The Secondary and Backyard Suite Incentive Program offers a significant opportunity to reduce your investment when building an additional unit on your Nova Scotia property.

  • Funding Available: Up to $40,000 (covering a maximum of 50% of eligible costs).
  • Crucial Note: Applicants must have equity or approved financing to cover the total project cost in advance, as the grant is a post-completion reimbursement.
