The Home Buyers' Plan allows first-time home buyers to withdraw funds from their RRSP to purchase or build a home. Under the plan, these funds are withdrawn tax-free and repaid over a period of up to 15 years. For the first time since 1992, the withdrawal limit under the HBP has been increased, from $20,000 to $25,000.
