Residential Protection Program

Public Registry of Builder & Property Information

About the Residential Protection Program


Buying a home is one of the biggest investments consumers make. The Residential Protection Program administers the New Home Buyer Protection Act including mandatory new home warranty and builder licensing requirements. These program components increase the standard of construction in Alberta; improve consumer protection and recourse options; and increase builder accountability.


Builder Registry

The builder registry is an online source of information about Alberta’s residential builders. Consumers can find information here to help to inform their selection for a residential builder. Users of the builder registry can find out a builder’s licence status, where the builder has built homes, the number of previous home warranty registrations, and if a builder has orders or administrative penalties issued under the New Home Buyer Protection Act.

Property Registry
