Free Webinar (2 CE): Understanding the Underused Housing Tax (UHT)

/in

The Underused Housing Tax (UHT) is an annual 1% tax on real estate that is owned by non-resident, non-Canadians and is considered vacant or underused. In some situations, this can also apply to Canadian citizens. The Underused Housing Tax Act (UHTA) requires property owners impacted by this tax to file an annual return, subject to certain exemptions, and pay a 1% tax on the property’s value.
