Boutique collection of four three-storey townhomes
1,475 to 2,116 sq ft
$5,000 first deposit
Central Burlington

A four-home boutique release in central Burlington, which is close to the only new freehold product in a city almost entirely built out. The fee here is quoted per square foot rather than as a flat amount, so work out your own monthly figure before comparing it against a flat-fee community.

Pricing and your rebate position

Listed prices run $899,000 to $1,040,000 across 4 floor plans. Assuming you qualify, here is what the current programs are worth at each end:

	At $899,000	At $1,040,000
Ontario ENHR (no first-time buyer test)	$71,920	$80,000
Federal rebate (first-time buyers only)	$44,950	$46,000

Confirm with the builder whether the advertised prices are quoted net of the HST rebate. Where they are, a buyer who does not qualify is billed the difference at closing. How this works.
