New-Home Rebate Guide

Before relying on a rebate, confirm the property, use, contract, timing, and builder treatment.

Six questions to confirm

01

Which rebate may apply?

Check the federal, Ontario, and first-time buyer paths separately.

02

Does the home and intended use fit?

Confirm the property type, buyer, intended occupancy, and other current eligibility details.

03

Which dates matter?

Ask whether the agreement, construction, possession, closing, and application timing affect the result.

04

How is the rebate treated in the contract?

Have the agreement and closing documents reviewed to confirm whether the builder credits or receives any rebate.

05

How does the full cost compare with resale?

Compare the complete new-home cost, upgrades, adjustments, possession, commute, and future ownership needs with suitable resale options.

06

Who confirms the current rule?

Use the official program page, then confirm the specific contract and tax treatment with the appropriate lawyer, tax professional, lender, and builder.

Verify the rule before you rely on it.
