The math

How the HST rebate is calculated

The 13% HST on a new home in Ontario is a 5% federal part and an 8% provincial part. Each has its own rebate, and the calculator adds the two.

Federal part

36% of the 5% GST, which is 1.8% of the purchase price, up to $6,300. It is largest at $350,000, shrinks in a straight line above that, and is $0 at $450,000 and above.

Ontario part

75% of the 8% provincial portion, which is 6% of the purchase price, up to $24,000. It reaches that at $400,000 and stays there at any higher price.

Together the two are largest at $350,000: $27,300. Above $450,000 the rebate is the Ontario part alone.

Questions about the calculator

How is the Ontario HST new housing rebate calculated?
The rebate has two parts. The federal part is 36% of the 5% GST, which is 1.8% of the purchase price, up to $6,300; it shrinks above $350,000 and is $0 at $450,000 and above. The Ontario part is 75% of the 8% provincial portion of the HST, which is 6% of the purchase price, up to $24,000, at any price above that.
What is the largest HST rebate on a new home in Ontario?
Under the standing program the two parts together are largest at a price of $350,000: $27,300. The Ontario part alone reaches its $24,000 maximum at $400,000 and stays there at any higher price.
How much is the HST rebate on a $600,000 new condo in Ontario?
About $24,000. Above $450,000 the federal part is $0, so the rebate is the Ontario part alone.
Is the HST rebate the same for a rental property?
The amounts are the same. What differs is how you receive it. On a home you live in, the builder usually credits the rebate at closing. On a rental, under the New Residential Rental Property Rebate, you pay the full HST at closing and claim it back afterward, and you need a first tenant on a lease of at least one year.
Is the number from this calculator final?
No. It is an estimate of the standing rebate from the purchase price alone, and it is not tax advice. The exact amount depends on your agreement, its dates, how the home is used and what the builder has already credited.
