There remains a lot of questions with regards to HST and Real Estate Transactions.

To sum it up, HST will apply where GST had previously:

New Construction properties will incur 12% HST, replacing the 5% GST
Seller's will now be pay 12% HST instead of the 5% GST on their Realtor commissions

PLEASE NOTE: THERE WILL BE NO HST CHARGE ON RESALE PROPERTIES.
