SAVE UP TO $50,000 WITH NEW GST REBATE

When buying your first newly built eQ Home, every dollar counts. The new federal FTHB GST Rebate puts real money back in your pocket.

Please note: This rebate is exclusively for eligible first-time homebuyers purchasing a new home as their primary residence. Depending on the value of your home, you could recover up to 100% of the federal GST paid (up to $50,000):

• Homes up to $1 million: Eligible for a full 100% federal GST rebate.
• Homes between $1 million and $1.5 million: The rebate amount is gradually reduced.

It’s one of the most impactful ways to lower your true cost of homeownership, and our team is here to help. To learn more, please visit Click Here.
