Nova Scotia Home Building Advice Under National Housing Act
A Canada wide Q and A explains that plans for a new house cannot yield fixed cost estimates as costs vary by city. It stresses obtaining complete item lists, detailed working plans, specifications, and a contract with a reputable builder to avoid extras. It covers land appraisals, rental insurance limits, and home extension loans up to 3000 for the first unit plus 1000 per additional unit with specific repayment terms.
Bank approval process for home additions and loans
Obtain forms from a chartered bank or approved instalment agency and fill them in triplicate with duplicate plans. Banks forward to Central Mortgage and Housing for approval, require detailed cost estimates, proof of ownership and taxes, and mortgage history. Construction starts after loan approval and final municipal stamping.

The baby lost to whooping cough today likely had no protection. It is up to parents and communities to ensure use of protection now available. Citizen cooperation is necessary.
