HST
HST Resources for Buyers and Builders
With the introduction of the HST, new home buyers want to clearly understand how it affects new housing. HST now applies to new residential housing; however, the government has implemented changes that minimize or eliminate the net impact to home buyers. To help home buyers understand the HST, CHBA has prepared a simple fact sheet to clarify the tax and help consumers calculate their new home tax rebate - a rebate that is available for all new residential home purchases.
For more information on how the HST affects new home buyers, download our fact sheet.
