Buying new construction in Markham
How buying pre-construction works in Markham
Buying pre-construction in Markham usually starts with registering interest in a project, which can put you in line for early access to pricing and floorplans. Once you select a unit, you sign a purchase agreement and pay a deposit in stages according to the builder's schedule. For condos, there's often a period of interim occupancy — you move in and pay an occupancy fee before the building is registered — followed by final closing when title transfers.
Ontario provides a specific buyer protection for condos: a 10-day cooling-off (rescission) period for new and pre-construction condominium purchases under the Condominium Act, during which you can cancel the agreement. This 10-day right applies to condos only and does not apply to freehold houses, so a townhome or detached home purchase in Markham that is freehold will not carry the same rescission window. Have a lawyer review any agreement before or during that period.
For investors: what matters in Markham
Pre-construction buying lets you commit to a unit today using a staged deposit rather than full financing, then close once the home is built. That structure is why some buyers use pre-construction to secure a specific home type at today's contract price while paying deposits over a defined schedule. It is a way to control a unit over an extended build period, not a guarantee of any particular outcome.
Before buying in Markham, it's worth evaluating the local supply picture — 42 active projects heavily weighted toward townhomes — alongside rental demand for the home type you're considering, the builder's track record, deposit terms, estimated occupancy and closing dates, and the closing costs and adjustments in your agreement. Condo units carry monthly fees and different rental dynamics than freehold townhomes or detached homes, so match the product to your holding plan and run your own numbers.
