January activity was seasonally normal, but the market softened most in higher-density homes. “Following the typical December slowdown, potential buyers for high-density homes were more hesitant to return to the market in January, as increased supply choice across all aspects of the market has reduced the sense of urgency,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist.

Proposed legislation was tabled in the House of Commons to introduce a first-time home buyers’ (FTHB) GST/HST rebate, which would eliminate the GST (or federal portion of the HST) for first-time home buyers on a new home valued up to $1 million. The rebate would also allow first-time home buyers to reduce the amount of tax they pay on a new home valued between $1 million and $1.5 million.

If the proposed legislation receives Royal Assent, a first-time home buyer may be eligible for the FTHB GST/HST rebate in addition to the existing GST/HST new housing rebate. Where both rebates apply, the GST/HST FTHB rebate would act as a top up to the existing GST/HST new housing rebate.
