Major update to new home rebates in Ontario.

In addition to the federal GST rebate, Ontario has announced a proposal to expand HST rebates — potentially allowing buyers to save up to $130,000 on new construction homes.

Here’s what’s being proposed:

• Homes under $1M → full 13% HST rebate (up to $130K)
• Homes up to $1.5M → maximum rebate maintained
• Homes up to $1.85M → reduced rebate available

This builds on the federal rebate and reflects a joint effort to lower the cost of new homes and increase housing supply.

The expanded rebate is expected to apply to qualifying purchases between April 1, 2026 and March 31, 2027, and may apply to both primary residences and certain rental properties.

If you're considering buying a new build, this could significantly reduce your upfront costs.

Send me a message if you want to explore homes that may qualify.
