Intergenerational · Brossard · 2026
The exact category of the by-law in Brossard, its conditions, the permit fee, and the checklist before buying or converting.
Intergenerational home in Brossard in 2026: Brossard recognizes the “two-generation home” (habitation bi-génération): the City has a specific permit procedure for building one, but the page publishes neither a definition, nor an area, nor a family-link condition; the conditions are in zoning by-law REG-362 and in the permit application form. The application form lists the required documents; two explanatory sheets go with the procedure: the certificate of location and the site plan of the main building. The non-refundable analysis fee is payable when the application is filed and deducted from the final fee; costs are stated in the form. Everywhere in Quebec, zoning may allow a single supplementary dwelling per main dwelling, reserved for family or not depending on the city, and the 2024-2029 by-right rule allows an accessory dwelling in a detached single-family home within the urban perimeter. Caregiver tax credit of $1,494 for a parent aged 70 or over who lives with you. Sources read on 16 September 2026.

The non-refundable analysis fee is payable when the application is filed and deducted from the final fee; costs are stated in the form. The application goes to direction.urbanisme@brossard.ca or to city hall (2001 boulevard de Rome). For a new build or an extension, the general fee is on our page building permit by city.
Québec.ca (urban planning decision guide, “Logement intergénérationnel”, updated 31 August 2026): the zoning by-law may allow a single supplementary dwelling per main dwelling, intended for people in an established category who have, or have had, a family or marriage link with the main occupant, and the municipality sets the conditions of layout and occupancy, which may vary from one category of buildings to another. From 21 August 2024 to 21 August 2029, the Act to amend various legislative provisions respecting housing allows an accessory dwelling to be built by right in a detached single-family home located within the urban perimeter, outside places subject to public-safety constraints and outside heritage buildings, even if the zoning by-law does not allow it (summary published by the City of Terrebonne). The caregiver tax credit (caregiver tax credit of $1,494 for a person aged 70 or over who lives with you, and of $1,494 to $2,988 for an adult with an impairment living with you) and the GCR warranty on a new intergenerational build apply in Brossard as elsewhere; our guide to the intergenerational home in Quebec compares the ten cities.

The family link, when required, is in the City's by-law; otherwise the category is an accessory or additional dwelling open to all.

Yes, when the unit has its permit and respects the City's category: it appeals to families looking for exactly that and to buyers who see one more dwelling. Without a permit, it sells for less and more slowly.
