Sunny Communities is currently building in the northern Greater Toronto Area, with three active projects listed on the platform across Richmond Hill and King, Ontario. Their lineup here focuses on ground-oriented housing rather than high-rise condos.
The home-type mix is two townhome projects and one single-family project, giving buyers a choice between attached and detached living within the same builder's portfolio. Current developments include Oxford Estates, The Townmanors of Brownsville, and Auden Grand Towns.
For buyers looking at this part of the GTA, Sunny Communities' presence in both Richmond Hill and the more low-density community of King means options across two distinct settings. Because these are freehold-style ground-oriented homes rather than condo towers, the buying process and applicable rules differ from a typical pre-construction condo purchase.

Buying a Sunny Communities pre-construction home
How buying pre-construction works
Buying a Sunny Communities home pre-construction generally starts with registering for a project — Oxford Estates, The Townmanors of Brownsville, or Auden Grand Towns — to get first access to plans and pricing. You then reserve a specific home and sign an agreement of purchase and sale, paying your deposit in stages according to the schedule set out in that agreement. The home is built over the following months or years, and you close once it's complete and ready for occupancy.
One rule to understand upfront: Ontario's 10-day cooling-off (rescission) period under the Condominium Act applies to new and pre-construction condos, giving those buyers 10 days to review documents and cancel. It does not apply to freehold houses. Because Sunny Communities' current projects here are ground-oriented townhomes and single-family homes, confirm with your lawyer whether a given home is freehold or condo, since that determines whether this protection applies to your purchase.
For investors: what to evaluate
Pre-construction purchases let a buyer put down staged deposits to secure a home during the building period, rather than paying the full price at the outset. With Sunny Communities' current projects, the home types on offer are townhomes and single-family homes in Richmond Hill and King, so the relevant fundamentals to evaluate are the ones that drive ground-oriented housing: local supply and absorption, rental demand for townhomes and detached homes in the northern GTA, and how each community's location fits within Richmond Hill or King.
Before buying, review the deposit schedule, the projected occupancy and closing timeline, and any assignment terms in the agreement of purchase and sale. Compare the two home types against your goals — an attached townhome and a detached single-family home carry different carrying costs, resale profiles, and tenant pools. None of this predicts future value; it's the groundwork for making an informed decision.
