Hi everyone,
I`m enjoying and benefiting greatly from ALL the posts... super educational! Thx REIN!
At last years` annual REIN conference in Edm one of the presenters (a fella from Amerispec I believe) talked about a gov`t program that offered grants and incentives for upgrading homes/buildings to a gov`t acceptable energy-efficient standard, and in turn, be reimbursed by the gov`t for a % of those renos (windows, heaters, insulation, etc) after it has been approved. See this link:

I`m curious to know if anyone out there in Real Estate Investing Land and/or fellow REIN-members have taken advantage of this program (or currently in the process) and received successfully the financial support that is offered after the upgrades have been approved? Worth it? How long?
In particular, I`m interested if anyone has done this with multi-family types (apt buildings, 4+ units). What has your experience been with this process? Any comments or suggestions of other similar type gov`t programs would be appreciated!
Thx all!
