|

PROVINCIAL HOME ACQUISITION |
|||
This account was created as a fund by the Provincial Home Acquisition Act, 1967, and was changed to a Special Account under the Special Appropriations Act, 1982. The purpose of the account was to pay grants to qualified British Columbia residents constructing or purchasing a home, and to make loans secured by second mortgages. Currently, mortgage financing is provided from this account to qualified British Columbia residents for the conversion of existing housing into rental suites under the Home Conversion and Leasehold Loan Act, 1979. Most of the BC Second Mortgage program portfolio has been sold to private sector lenders. The province repurchases mortgage accounts which become more than 90 days in arrears. Revenue consists of interest on outstanding mortgage principal. Expense includes statutory rebates and other miscellaneous program costs. Receipts represent repayment of outstanding mortgage loan principal. Disbursements represent new conversion mortgages, repurchased mortgage accounts and guarantee claims paid under the mortgage assistance program. |
