Prince Edward County, Ontario · A Buyer's Resource
A free, straight-talking guide to the County's short-term accommodation rules, what they mean for buyers, and how to evaluate an income property. Written by an agent who runs his own.
The One Thing Most Buyers Miss
Since September 20, 2022, the County has not issued new short-term accommodation licences for properties you do not live in. The only way to own one is to buy a property that already holds a transferable, grandfathered licence. This guide shows you exactly how to tell the difference, before you make an offer you cannot undo.
What's Inside
This is the real playbook for buying an income property in The County, not a generic investor pitch. Here's what you'll walk away knowing.
Primary, secondary, and B&B, and which ones a new buyer can actually pursue.
The single rule that reshaped the whole income-property market here, and how to use it.
Exactly what to confirm with the County before you waive a single condition.
The 4% Municipal Accommodation Tax, the penalties, and how to underwrite income honestly.
A printable, work-through-it list covering the licence, the property, and the numbers.
Well, septic, access, and zoning, sized for guest use, not just an owner.
