Unclaimed Property Insurance Rebates – If you are thinking about buying a new home, you should consider claiming the New Property Rebate. There are a few conditions that must be met to claim this rebate. First, you must make sure that the property you want to buy is eligible. The price of your home will determine the amount of rebate.
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. This includes the amount you paid to assignors who will be subject to GST/HST.
Two forms are required to apply for the rebate. You can find them on the government’s site. The application form and the rebate amount will be calculated using one of the forms. Then, you’ll need to mail these forms to the appropriate tax centre.
Duplexes
Duplexes are buildings consisting of two residential units that do not have 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 crucial because you might be required to reimburse the rebate if the work was not paid for by you. A rebate can only be claimed once per house. You cannot claim the rebate twice if you are planning to perform additional work on your home.
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 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.
