Overview

Purchasing a home
in Montréal - it’s possible!

The SHDM is a key player to facilitate homeownership by accrediting affordable and quality housing projects and financing buyers’ down payments

With its Accès Condos program, the SHDM participates in the diversification of the condominium market with affordable and quality projects. Through this program, the SHDM supports individuals who wish to buy a home in Montréal and contributes to urban revitalization. Accredited Accès Condos projects differ from traditional private projects because they meet performance criteria including quality and affordability, while contributing to the social and economic revitalization of Montréal’s neighbourhoods. The program is based on a partnership with developers and a financial tool that provides a purchase credit to buyers to lower their down payment to $1,000. This program offers two distinct options: the standard option and the exclusive option.
