House Hacking for Canada

Jordan Deschamps
Posted Nov 23 2019, 17:54

I'm sure many of you have come to this community from books like Craig Curelop's House Hacking, or similar sources. I am a Canadian Citizen, living in Canada and I hope to start house hacking in my home city of Calgary.

The problem is sources such as the book above refer to loans, mortgages, taxes and laws originating in america.

I am looking to have a place where the Bigger Pockets community can, for lack of a better word "translate" this kind of information to Canadian systems.

In particular I am wondering, 

- what are some realistic mortgage options regarding minimum down payments?

- where can I find resources regarding rental laws in each province?

- are there subsidies or tax benefits that I should consider?

If anyone has Canada specific knowledge to share with the community I invite you to comment below.
