Property Rebate – If you are thinking about buying a new home, you should consider claiming the New Property Rebate. To claim the rebate, there are some conditions. You must first ensure that the property you are looking to purchase is eligible. The price of your home will determine the amount of rebate.
GST/HST
If you are planning on buying a new house, you might be eligible for a GST/HST rebate on the purchase. You must first be the primary owner. The new house must not exceed $450,000 in price. This includes the amount you paid to assignors who will be subject to GST/HST.
To apply, you’ll need to fill out two forms that you can find on the government’s website. 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. Unlike condominiums, duplexes are not eligible for the GST/HST new residential rental property rebate.

In order to qualify, you need to be the one who built the house, or engaged someone else to do it for you. 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. It’s important to note that claiming this rebate is different from claiming your ITCs. The rebate is only applicable to the purchase price of a new property, and the total purchase price should be the same as the fair market value.
A rebate may be available based on the GST/HST paid when you buy a new property. You may also be eligible for a rebate depending on the GST/HST paid on the construction of your new home.
