New homes in Dundas
Freehold detached homes, townhomes and semis
There are no significant new freehold low-rise communities tracked in Dundas right now. Buyers looking in this area generally widen the search to Hamilton or Stoney Creek, where new detached homes and townhomes are actively releasing.
What’s being built in Dundas
Dundas has no significant new low-rise subdivision supply currently tracked. Hemmed in by the escarpment and the Dundas Valley conservation area, it is effectively built out, and new housing arrives as small infill rather than community releases.
What you could claim here
Even with no active communities, the programs are worth understanding before you widen your search, because they are time-limited and they run on your signing date.
The Ontario Enhanced New Housing Rebate pays the 8% provincial portion of HST up to $80,000 on a new home, and it has no first-time buyer test. The federal first-time buyer GST rebate adds up to $50,000 on top for those who qualify. Both require a new build, and both require the home to be your primary residence.
The Ontario window closes March 31, 2027, and it is the signing date that counts, not the closing date. The deadline.
Land transfer tax
Dundas 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
Highway 403 and 6, with Aldershot and West Harbour GO stations nearby.
