Land Transfer Tax (LTT) Rebate Program

Program

First-time home buyers who purchase a newly constructed home will receive a rebate of the Land Transfer Tax (LTT). All other buyers will continue to pay the full applicable tax. The maximum LTT rebate is $2,000.

Details

  • The 1996 Ontario Budget announced a special one-year provision to the LTT that was
    renewed every year and is now a permanent program.

  • First time buyers who purchase a newly constructed home will receive a rebate of the LTT. All other buyers will continue to pay the full applicable tax.

  • The maximum rebate is $2000. If an individual owns less than 100% interest in the newly built home, the amount of the rebate would be reduced and calculated according to the amount of interest in the home.

  • A rebate of $2,000 is equivalent to the LTT payable on a purchase price of $227,500 (net of GST).

  • Only individuals who are at least 18 years of age, have not previously owned an interest in a home anywhere qualify for the rebate. Also applies to their spouse.

  • Individuals who have received an Ontario Home Ownership Savings Plan (OHOSP) based refund of the LTT do not qualify.
