The Cornwall

Buying pre-construction at a project like The Cornwall usually begins with registering for first access. Registered buyers are often invited to early release stages before broader public sales, which can matter when the most sought-after layouts and floors tend to move first.

Deposits on new condos in Ontario are typically staged over time rather than paid all at once — a series of instalments due at signing and at set milestones. The exact structure will be set out in the builder's agreement, so review it carefully with your own lawyer before committing.

Ontario buyers of new condominium units are protected by a 10-day cooling-off period under the Condominium Act, during which you can review the disclosure statement and agreement and cancel if needed. New condos also involve interim occupancy — when you move in and pay occupancy fees before the building formally registers — followed by final closing, when title transfers. Altra Homes will confirm the specific dates and terms.
