Builder choice matters more than most buyers expect. Delivery record, reliability on closing dates and how warranty items get handled vary enormously and appear on no price list. How to assess a builder.
What the rebates are worth at local prices
New low-rise here currently runs roughly $694,000 to $1,594,000, and that band decides your rebate position. Here is the arithmetic at both ends.
| At $694,000 | At $1,594,000 | |
|---|---|---|
| Ontario ENHR (no first-time buyer test) | $55,520 | $64,960 |
| Federal rebate (first-time buyers only) | $34,700 | $0 |
At the entry end, a home at $694,000 sits below $1,000,000, which means the full 8% Ontario rebate, $55,520, plus the full 5% federal rebate for a first-time buyer. This is the most favourable band in the whole structure.
The band here straddles $1,000,000, which is where the structure changes: above it the Ontario rebate stops growing and sits flat at $80,000, while the federal rebate begins tapering toward zero at $1,500,000. Two buyers in the same community can be in different places.
At the top end, $1,594,000 is at or above $1,500,000, where the federal first-time buyer rebate is zero. Watch this carefully: lot premiums and upgrades count toward your price, so a base price just under the line can cross it at the décor appointment and cost more than the upgrades were worth. The price cliffs.
If you have owned a home before, note that the Ontario rebate still applies to you, it has no first-time buyer test, and move-up buyers routinely assume otherwise and claim nothing. Read this one.
These are illustrative maximums at the ends of the local range, not a quote. Run your own numbers.
Land transfer tax
Barrie is outside the City of Toronto, so you pay Ontario land transfer tax only, with no second municipal tax. Rates and the first-time buyer refund.
Getting around
Two GO stations on the Barrie line, Highway 400 straight down to the 401.
