Effective immediately:
the maximum household income level has been increased from $61,400 to $68,000, and
the maximum purchase price of a new or resale home has been increased from $208,000 to $226,000.
In order to participate in the September 15 lottery draw, applicants must submit their application to the Region of Waterloo by September 5.
