Homeowner

A homeowner is defined as:

  • a person registered with land titles as owning the home (where you live),
  • the owner of a taxable residence located on land owned by someone else, such as a condominium,
  • a person registered under the Land Titles Act as having a life estate, or
  • a person who owns the mobile home and owns or rents the land it is on.

If you are married, living common-law or in an adult interdependent relationship, and only one of you owns the home you live in, both you and your spouse/partner are considered “homeowners” under the Alberta Seniors Benefit program.

You are not considered a homeowner if you do not live in the home you own. Your accommodation status is based on where you live.
