About The Opportunity

A Once-in-a-Generation Savings Opportunity for Ontario Home Buyers

If you have been waiting for the right time to buy or build a new home in St. Catharines, Niagara Region, or anywhere in the Greater Toronto Area, that time is now. The Ontario Enhanced HST Rebate removes a significant portion of the provincial and federal HST normally charged on new home construction — delivering savings of up to $130,000 on qualifying purchases. For buyers of our Rykert Street semi-detached homes in Western Hill, St. Catharines, this translates directly into lower out-of-pocket cost on a move-in ready property backed by a full Tarion new home warranty.

Penta Rock Homes is a fully registered builder with both the Home Construction Regulatory Authority (HCRA) and the Tarion Warranty Corporation — a legal requirement for any builder in Ontario to offer this rebate. Every home we build comes with the complete Tarion protection package: deposit protection, delayed closing coverage, and a 7-year structural warranty. Whether you are a first-time buyer or an investor purchasing one of our Rykert Street semis, our team will walk you through every step of the qualification and application process.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The Ontario Enhanced HST Rebate is a government program that reduces the amount of Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) paid on the purchase of a qualifying newly built home. It combines a federal new housing rebate and an Ontario new housing rebate into one significant credit — up to $130,000 — applied at closing through your solicitor.
Eligible buyers can save up to $130,000 on the purchase of a qualifying newly built home. The exact amount depends on your purchase price and personal circumstances. We strongly recommend engaging a real estate solicitor or tax advisor to calculate your specific rebate before signing an Agreement of Purchase & Sale.
No. The Ontario Enhanced HST Rebate is not restricted to first-time buyers. It is available to any qualifying individual purchasing a newly built home that will be used as their primary place of residence. Investors purchasing as a rental property may qualify under different rules — consult a tax professional for your specific situation.
Yes. The rebate applies to owner-built homes and custom home construction contracts — not only pre-built spec homes. If you are commissioning a custom home through Penta Rock Homes anywhere in Ontario, the rebate may be available to you. Your Agreement of Purchase & Sale must be signed by March 31, 2027 to qualify.
Your Agreement of Purchase & Sale must be signed by March 31, 2027. This is a hard deadline set by the Ontario government. We strongly encourage buyers who are interested to begin conversations with our team well in advance — move-in ready inventory is limited.
Yes. Penta Rock Homes is a fully licensed and registered builder with the Home Construction Regulatory Authority (HCRA) — the mandatory registration required for any builder in Ontario to sell newly built homes. We are also registered with Tarion, the new home warranty program. Both registrations are prerequisites for buyers to access the Enhanced HST Rebate on a new home purchase.
Tarion is the Ontario new home warranty program. All newly built homes sold by an HCRA-registered builder must be enrolled with Tarion before permits are issued. Your Tarion warranty covers: deposit protection (if the builder cannot complete the home), delayed closing compensation, and a tiered warranty on workmanship (1 year), systems (2 years), and structural defects (7 years). It is included in the price of every Penta Rock home at no additional cost to you.
