good thing for anyone who bought before HST was announced, it will not apply on the purchase of your place. I bought in March of 2008 so HST does not affect me
although the sales staff who closed the deal with me kept trying to reassure me that it's not a ridiculous amount (whatever the heck that's supposed to mean....)

What comes standard in the bedroom? Carpet or hardwood?
Hi all!
I've been lurking around for a bit since I am very interested in purchasing a condo in this area. I am looking for 2 bedrooms with 2 washrooms. Does anyone know if there's any available suites left?
Thanks.
Yeah - this is the only thing that's really bugging me right now. You mentioned that you were able to get a cap? If you don't mind me asking, were you able to get a cap of a specific monetary value?
The 'existing levy' thing is so vague.... this coupled with the HST and mortgage rates rising is making me want to hurl. On the one hand, I can't wait to move in, but on the other hand I'm getting nervous about all of these unknown closing costs...
Hey guys. I'm new to the forum and have given this thread a quick read through. I just recently bought an 8th floor unit in M1, but I didn't buy from the builder directly. I bought from someone who had already bought from the builder. I don't think they were investors, I think they just couldn’t come up with the cash to close and had to sell.
The original P&S agreement with the builder states that the price is inclusive of GST and that the GST rebate that the purchaser is entitled to must be assigned to the builder, and if the purchaser is not entitled to it (i.e. they’re an investor) the purchaser must pay the builder this amount upon closing. I’m still trying to figure out if I would qualify for this rebate as I’m not the original purchaser. Has anybody come across this situation and knows whether I would qualify? My lawyer doesn’t think so but the original purchaser’s lawyer thinks I would. Also, did you guys have to apply for the GST rebate when you signed the original P&S agreement?
Thanks for the help!
