Changes to First Time Home Buyer G.S.T. Rebate

Changes to First Time Home Buyer

G.S.T. Rebate

Yesterday, May 27, the Federal Government issued a press release that is very important for first time home buyers of new homes (and co-ops): a full GST rebate on homes under $1 million, and a partial rebate on homes between $1 million and $1.5 million.

Per the press release (the link to which is found at the bottom of this email), the Excise Tax Act will be amended to provide a rebate to first time home buyers. In basic terms, it means that First Time Home Buyers will still pay the GST on the closing of a purchase of a qualifying home but will be eligible for a rebate of the full amount (up to $50,000).

The rebate is phased out in a linear manner from $1-1.5 million. So for example, a home that is $1.4 million would lose 80% of the rebate – in other words, it would still be eligible for a 20% ($10,000) rebate!

This policy will hopefully spur some activity in the pre-sale market and help first time buyers enter the market.

We will be updating our Knowledge Centre shortly, but in the meantime feel free to ask any questions that come to mind. We anticipate a large number of questions so will likely batch them and answer them in our next email. 

The full press release can be found here: https://www.canada.ca/en/department-finance/news/2025/05/gst-relief-for-first-time-home-buyers-on-new-homes-valued-up-to-15-million.html
