Consumers Energy Rental Property Rebate Program – The New Property Rebate is a great incentive for those who are considering buying a home. There are a few conditions that must be met to claim this rebate. You must first ensure that the property you are looking to purchase is eligible. The rebate amount depends on the price of the home.
GST/HST
If you’re planning to buy a new home, you may qualify for a GST/HST new property rebate if you meet certain conditions. First of all, you must be the primary owner of the house. The new house must not exceed $450,000 in price. The total price of the house must not exceed this amount, including the price you paid to the assignors, who will have to pay GST/HST.
Two forms are required to apply for the rebate. You can find them on the government’s site. One form will calculate the rebate amount and the other is the application form. These forms will need to be mailed to the tax center.
Duplexes
Duplexes are two units of a building that have the same legal title but do not include separate legal titles. You can also have a single-family home with a separate apartment. Duplexes are not eligible to receive the GST/HST residential rental property rebate, unlike condominiums.

To be eligible, you must have built the house or hired someone to do it. This is important, because if you do not pay for the work yourself, you may be asked to pay the rebate back. A rebate can only be claimed once per house. If you plan to do additional work on your property, you should not claim a rebate twice.
Filing deadline
The filing deadline for new property rebate depends on which rebate you are applying for. Important to remember that this rebate is not the same as claiming your ITCs. The rebate can only be applied to the purchase of a new property.
When you purchase a new property, you may be eligible for a rebate based on the GST/HST you paid on the land and house. In addition, if you’ve built a new home, you may be eligible for a rebate based on the GST/HST you paid on the construction or renovation of the property.
