What’s being built in Hamilton
Hamilton is a large and varied market, and most of the new freehold low-rise is on the mountain and in the outer communities, Waterdown, Binbrook, Glanbrook and Stoney Creek Mountain, rather than the lower city. Entry pricing is among the lowest in the extended GTA.
Communities that have launched or are actively selling here include:
- Empire Summerlea Woods (Empire)
- SOL Stacked Towns (New Horizon, Waterdown)
- Empire Lush Towns (Stoney Creek Mountain)
Availability changes week to week and the best lots in any phase go early, register for access and I’ll send what’s releasing here.
Builders active in Hamilton: Empire Communities, New Horizon Development Group, Losani Homes, DeSantis Homes, Spallacci Homes, Branthaven Homes.
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 $399,000 to $950,000, and that band decides your rebate position. Here is the arithmetic at both ends.
| At $399,000 | At $950,000 | |
|---|---|---|
| Ontario ENHR (no first-time buyer test) | $31,920 | $76,000 |
| Federal rebate (first-time buyers only) | $19,950 | $47,500 |
At the entry end, a home at $399,000 sits below $1,000,000, which means the full 8% Ontario rebate, $31,920, plus the full 5% federal rebate for a first-time buyer. This is the most favourable band in the whole structure.
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
Hamilton 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 lines (Lakeshore West to Hamilton and West Harbour), the QEW, 403 and Lincoln Alexander Parkway.
