Land transfer tax is a mandatory fee imposed on property buyers in Ontario, including the city of Toronto. It is calculated based on the purchase price of the property and is payable upon closing. However, first-time homebuyers in Ontario are eligible for a rebate on the provincial land transfer tax. This rebate allows first-time buyers to receive up to $4,000 towards their land transfer tax, helping to alleviate some of the financial burden associated with purchasing a home. In addition to the provincial land transfer tax, Toronto also imposes a municipal land transfer tax. This tax is calculated using a different rate structure and is payable on top of the provincial tax. However, similar to the provincial rebate, first-time homebuyers in Toronto can also receive a rebate of up to $4,475 on the municipal land transfer tax. This rebate further assists first-time buyers in successfully entering the Toronto real estate market.
First-time home buyers who acquire a qualifying home can claim a non-refundable tax credit of up to $750 . The value of the HBTC is calculated by multiplying $5,000 with the lowest personal income tax rate (15% in 2022).
