Under the Home Renovation Incentive, there is no restriction relating to the age of a qualifying property.

A qualifying residential property must be either a homeowner's main home or a rental property, which must be occupied by a tenant and registered with the Private Residential Tenancies Board within 6 months of the completion of the works.
