Ontario HST rebate calculator

Three dates settle most cases. Send them over and we’ll tell you which programs apply, roughly what you’re owed, and whether any deadline is running.

Free, and you’ll get a straight answer — including when the answer is no.

Question 1

What are you claiming for?

This HST new housing rebate calculator estimates the GST/HST new housing rebate available on an Ontario property based on your dates and purchase price. It covers the enhanced rebate, the first-time buyer programs, rental properties and owner-built homes. It doesn’t ask for your name or email, and it doesn’t quote a fee.

Rather just send us your details?

We’ll come back to you with an assessment, usually within one business day. No cost, no obligation, and we’ll tell you plainly if you don’t have a claim.

What happens next

We read your dates. Which programs are live for you depends almost entirely on when you signed, closed, or broke ground.
We confirm where you stand. Which programs apply, what’s likely recoverable, and any deadline that’s running.
You decide. If there’s a claim worth making, we’ll quote a flat fee before you commit to anything.

Why we ask for dates instead of a price

Most rebate calculators ask what you paid and return a number. That number is usually wrong, because eligibility for these programs turns on timing far more than on price.

An agreement signed on March 31, 2027 qualifies for the enhanced rebate. One signed the next day doesn’t, on an identical house. A first-time buyer’s four-year lookback can flip on a closing date four months apart. A rental claim runs on when construction began, which most investors have never checked.

A price tells us the size of a rebate you may not be entitled to. Dates tell us whether you’re entitled at all — and that’s the question worth answering first.

Prefer to just call?

Three dates and about five minutes is usually enough for a straight answer.

Monday to Saturday. If we’re with a client, leave a message and you’ll hear back the same day.

Any estimate provided is an indication based on the information you supply and is not a tax opinion or a guarantee of entitlement. Rebate eligibility is determined by the Canada Revenue Agency.
