Sales Taxes
Taxes may be applied based on the purchase price of a property. Many properties are exempt from sales tax (GST and/or PST). For instance, residential resale properties are usually exempt. However, others, like newly built properties are not exempt and require the buyer to pay GST. Before signing your offer, be sure you understand the tax implications.
