“The abolition of the welcome tax for the purchase of a first property, as well as the other commitments that we are making, will help those who dream of becoming homeowners to do so,” believes the Leader of the Official Opposition.

It has become increasingly difficult for Quebecers to keep pace with inflation in the real estate market, added Marie-Claude Nichols, housing spokesperson. “This problem of accessibility is worrying, especially since it particularly affects young people and families in Quebec. »

The Liberal Party of Quebec is also proposing to improve the access to home ownership plan (RAP) by raising the ceiling to $50,000, or $15,000 more than currently, as well as by relaxing the rules for using the RAP.

The introduction of a policy to oversee purchase-resale operations was also mentioned.
