Allows senior homeowners, 65 years of age and older, to finance home repairs and adaptations through a low-interest home equity loan with the Government of Alberta. Under SHARP, a minimum home equity loan of $500 to a maximum of $40,000 may be available to seniors with an annual total income of $75,000 or less and who have a minimum of 25% home equity in their primary residence. SHARP also includes a grant component for low-income seniors who do not qualify for a loan, due to insufficient home equity, or for mobile home owners who did not own their land. The grant is limited to basic and essential home repairs and adaptations.
