Housing solutions designed for you

CIBC has designed a residential mortgage program for eligible First Nations people living on-reserve or Métis settlement residents in Alberta. Your CIBC advisor will work with you to identify the right housing solution to meet your needs.

Flexibility to fit your situation

In working with Aboriginal communities, CIBC has developed products and services with distinct features to address specific financial issues, both on and off-reserve. Some factors we considered in building these products are:

tax and legal implications
adjustment of income
tax-exempt interest income in certain products in on-reserve branches - please consult your tax advisor for specific details1
