HST - HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR HOME PURCHASE

Have a Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year!

The Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) came into effect on July 1. The provincial and federal governments combined the 7% provincial sales tax (PST) and the 5% federal Goods and Services Tax (GST) into the 12% HST. Some of the transition rules can be quite confusing, so talk to your REALTOR® about the speci¿cs of your situation. In the meantime, we hope the following will help you understand the basics of what is, and what is not, subject to the new tax and how it affects your home purchase. First and foremost, it is important to note that the HST applies to new homes. It does not apply to resale homes. New Housing Rebate You may be eligible for a provincial New Housing Rebate if you buy, as your primary residence: •

a new home together with land;

•

a new home together with leased land;

•

a new mobile home or Àoat home;

•

a new home purchased through shares in a housing cooperative; or

•

a home constructed or substantially renovated (more than 90%) by the owner-builder.

Buyers of new homes are eligible for a rebate of 71.43% of the provincial portion (7% of the HST’s 12%) of the HST paid on the new home up to a maximum rebate of $26,250. Homes priced at more than $525,000 are eligible for a Àat rebate of $26,250. This rebate is limited to primary residences. Recreational property not used as a primary residence does not qualify.

Tastefully Renovated Rancher Come home to comfort in this 3 bedroom renovated rancher. As you enter you notice the nice C ambiance of this home with up-to-date decor U D E and colours. There is a spacious living dining R room combination for entertaining with easy care laminate flooring. The adjoining kitchen has an abundance of white cabinetry and a nice tiled 1050 Beaufort Drive backsplash. The home sits on a large private corner lot which is fully fenced and boasts a large deck for summer get-togethers. There is a single car garage and room for RV parking. Located close to shopping, schools, the hospital and bus route. Just move in and enjoy!

$284,900

If you buy a presale property and the agreement is dated on or before November 18, 2009 and you take ownership or possession after July 1, 2010, you will not pay the HST and will not be eligible for a New Housing Rebate. You will pay the GST. If the agreement is dated after November 18, 2009 and you take ownership or possession after July 1, 2010, you will pay the HST and may be eligible for the New Housing Rebate.

Trendy Downtown Location Situated in the heart of Nanaimo near the sea wall and Port Place Shopping Centre this 537 sq ft bachelor unit is a very nice investment. It offers secured parking and entrance, storage, a mountain view and four appliances. The building is concrete and the unit is in move in condition and sharply priced at $109,900. Don't rent when you can buy!

Buying either a new or a resale home The 12% HST is now charged on a range of goods and services including: • home renovations; • energy ef¿cient appliances, insulation, windows and doors; • heating and electricity bills, telephone, cable; • closing costs such as appraisals and inspections; • moving costs; and • REALTOR® fees or commissions – note that the HST will apply to REALTOR® services performed on or

$109,900

102-30 Cavan Street

after July 1, 2010. If 90% or more of the services were performed before July 1, 2010, the HST will not apply. The HST is not the PTT The Property Transfer Tax (PTT) is a separate provincial tax on all property transfers. The rate is 1% on the ¿rst $200,000 and 2% on the remainder of the fair market value of the property (usually the property price) before the GST/HST is applied.
