18 active developments in Oshawa, Ontario — get pricing, floor plans, and first access before the public.
Oshawa's new-construction market currently has 18 active developments on the platform, spread across a mix of home types. There are 9 townhome projects, 7 single-family projects and 2 condo projects, so the choice here leans toward ground-related housing rather than high-rise living. Starting prices run from $259,990 at the lower end up to $1,689,900, which covers everything from an entry-level condo suite to a larger detached home.
Several established builders are active in the area, including Brightstone, Greycrest Homes, Treasure Hill Homes, Marlin Spring Developments, Medallion Developments, Sorbara, Laurelcrest Homes and Greenpark Group. Current projects on the platform include Bellaro at Palmetto, Symphony Towns, Tanglewood, Homeward Hills, Heartwood Village and Palmetto.
What stands out about buying new in Oshawa is the range: with townhomes making up half the active projects and single-family homes close behind, buyers who want a yard and more space have real options, while the two condo projects give first-time and smaller-household buyers a lower entry point. The wide starting-price spread means the same city serves both budget-conscious buyers and those shopping at the top of the market.

Buying pre-construction in Oshawa usually starts with registering your interest, which can give you first access when a builder releases units. Once you choose a home, you sign a purchase agreement and pay a deposit — commonly structured in stages during construction rather than as a single lump sum. For condos there is often an interim occupancy period, where you move in and pay an occupancy fee before the building formally registers and you take title at final closing; freehold houses close in a single step once the home is complete.
In Ontario, new and pre-construction condo purchases come with a 10-day cooling-off (rescission) period under the Condominium Act, giving you time to review the agreement and disclosure documents and cancel within that window. Note that this protection applies to condos only — it does not apply to freehold houses, which make up most of Oshawa's active townhome and single-family projects.
Pre-construction purchases work differently from buying a resale home: instead of paying the full price at once, you put down a deposit (often paid in stages over the construction period) to secure a unit today at a set price, then close once the home is built. That structure lets a buyer commit capital gradually rather than all at once, which is part of why some investors look at pre-construction at all — though the trade-off is a longer timeline and construction risk.
Before buying in Oshawa, it's worth looking at local supply and absorption — with 18 active projects weighted heavily toward townhomes and single-family homes, the mix of what's coming to market matters for how a given home type competes. Evaluate rental demand for the specific home type you're considering, the builder's track record (names like Sorbara, Greenpark Group and Treasure Hill are established), the full deposit schedule, closing costs, and any interim occupancy period on condo purchases. None of this predicts what a home will be worth later; it's the groundwork for judging whether a purchase fits your own plan.
Starting prices across the 18 active developments run from $259,990 to $1,689,900 CAD. The lower end typically reflects condo and entry-level options, while the top of the range covers larger single-family homes.
The current mix is 9 townhome projects, 7 single-family projects and 2 condo projects. That means most of the new construction here is ground-related housing, with condos as the smaller share.
Active builders on the platform include Brightstone, Greycrest Homes, Treasure Hill Homes, Marlin Spring Developments, Medallion Developments, Sorbara, Laurelcrest Homes and Greenpark Group. Sample projects include Bellaro at Palmetto, Symphony Towns, Tanglewood, Homeward Hills, Heartwood Village and Palmetto.
Yes, for new and pre-construction condos. Ontario's Condominium Act provides a 10-day cooling-off (rescission) period during which you can cancel the agreement. This does not apply to freehold houses, including most townhome and single-family purchases.

For a first-time buyer, the two condo projects and the lower end of the price range (starting around $259,990) are the most accessible entry points in Oshawa. Deposit requirements on pre-construction are set by the builder and are typically paid in installments rather than all at closing, so it's important to read each project's deposit schedule carefully and budget for it alongside land transfer costs and closing fees.
Ontario offers well-known supports that first-time buyers should check their eligibility for, such as the provincial Land Transfer Tax refund for first-time buyers and the federal First-Time Home Buyer programs — confirm current terms directly, since amounts and rules change. Registering early with a project can matter because pre-construction releases often open to registered buyers first, which can mean better unit selection and pricing before wider release.
Deposit amounts are set by each builder and are usually paid in stages over the construction period rather than all at once. Review the specific deposit schedule in each project's purchase agreement before committing.
That depends on your own goals and due diligence. With 18 active projects weighted toward townhomes and single-family homes, investors should weigh local supply, rental demand for the specific home type, the builder's track record, and the full deposit and closing structure — and avoid assuming any particular price outcome.
On condo purchases you may enter an interim occupancy period, moving in and paying an occupancy fee before the building is registered. Final closing happens later, when the condo registers and you take title. Freehold houses close in a single step when the home is complete.
Builders often release units to registered buyers before wider public release. Registering early can improve your unit selection and give you access to earlier pricing, though it doesn't obligate you to buy.
