potential tax savings up to $500 for new home buyers when they purchase a newly built home

2012-02-22T09:00:00.001-08:00

The provincial government announced today a potential tax savings up to $500 for new home buyers when they purchase a newly built home, effective for agreements written today until the HST is removed on April 1, 2013. Details are as follows:

BC First-Time New Home Buyers' Bonus

The new BC First-Time New Home Buyers' Bonus will be a temporary one-time refundable income tax credit for first-time home buyers who purchase a newly constructed home. The credit will be calculated as five per cent of the purchase price of the home up to a maximum credit of $10,000.

The credit will be phased out at a rate of 20 per cent of net income in excess of $150,000 for single individuals and at a rate of 10 per cent of family net income in excess of $150,000 for couples. Only one credit can be claimed per home.

The credit will be available on purchases of newly constructed housing where both the HST applies and where a written agreement of purchase and sale is entered into on or after Feb. 21, 2012.

Flub your curb appeal factor, though, and you’ll trash your property value and detract from nearby houses, too. Here are some classic curb appeal no-nos.
