Harmonized Sales Tax

HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) is now in effect

Your Burlington Ontario real estate agent would like to share this interesting article with you.

Well, I am sure most of you know that the HST came into effect on July 1, 2010.  There are many items NOT affected at all by the HST but there are others that are.  Check this link for a list of the changes.

Specific to Home Purchases, here are the changes that you will find:

Home Purchases

GST-taxable before July 1, 2010 PST-taxable before July 1,2010 Is there a change to the amount of tax payable under the HST?
New Homes up to $400,000 5% No PST No change (5)
New Homes over $400,000 5% No PST Yes (5A)
Resale Homes No GST No PST No HST
Real Estate Commissions 5% No PST Yes (changes to 13%)

5  The new housing rebate will be 75 per cent of the Ontario component of the HST, up to a maximum of $24,000. The rebate will ensure that buyers of homes priced up to $400,000 will, on average, pay no more tax than under the PST system. However, applicable PST on building supplies is embedded in the price of the home.

5A   New homes purchased as primary residences, valued at $400,000 or more will be eligible for the maximum new housing rebate of $24,000.
