In the GTA, single-family home sales have surged 47% above the 10-year average, a testament to just how resilient demand remains. One major driver has been the HST rebate, with savings of up to $130,000 helping buyers absorb additional tariff costs and keep new construction moving forward. This momentum supports not just families searching for the right fit, but also 256,000 jobs and $39.3 billion in local investment. I\u2019ve seen firsthand, both as a Realtor and during my years as an MPAC property inspector, how incentives like these open doors for people\u2014whether it\u2019s your first step into the market, a move to something bigger, or a new chapter in a dream home. My focus is always on making sure you\u2019re informed and confident, no matter where you are in your real estate journey.<\/p>\n<p>\t<a class=\"roomvu-news-continue\" href=\"https:\/\/ca.finance.yahoo.com\/news\/ontarios-130k-hst-rebate-absorbs-111500042.html\"><\/p>\n<div>Continue to full article<\/div>\n<p>\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s remarkable to see how Ontario\u2019s housing market continues to hold its own\u2014even as we navigate shifting prices and economic pressures.
