Why Hire a Real Estate Accountant in Mississauga?

Our Mississauga accountants see the same reassessment again and again. A buyer lets the builder credit the new housing rebate at closing, then rents the unit out instead of moving in, and CRA claws the rebate back with interest. Our team files the New Residential Rental Property rebate in its place, which is the rebate a landlord is actually entitled to.

Assignment sales are the second. Since 6 May 2022 every assignment of a newly built or substantially renovated home carries HST, whatever the assignor originally intended, and CRA frequently treats the profit as business income rather than a capital gain. Our accountants price the HST into the deal and document the intent before the assignment is signed.

Our accounting firm in Mississauga work with residential landlords, commercial investors, assignors, developers and non-resident owners across Mississauga and Peel Region. Our team answers CRA directly when a reassessment arrives, and keeps the closing documents, rebate applications and rental schedules on file so the answer is already prepared.

Non-Resident Speculation Tax for Foreign Buyers in Mississauga

Our Mississauga accountants determine your NRST position before you close, not after. Ontario charges 25 percent of the purchase price on residential property bought anywhere in the province by a foreign national, a foreign corporation or a taxable trustee. On a $900,000 Mississauga home that is $225,000 on top of your land transfer tax.

Our team checks the exemptions first. A nominee under the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program, a protected person, or the spouse of a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, nominee or protected person can be exempt at the time of purchase. Our accountants confirm which applies and give your real estate lawyer what they need before registration.

Where NRST has already been paid, our accountants file the permanent resident rebate once your status is granted. The window is four years from the date the conveyance was registered, and missing it forfeits the whole amount. Our team tracks that date from the closing file rather than waiting for you to raise it. Clients who rent the property out also need non-resident tax filing under section 216, which we handle in the same engagement.

HST Rebates on New Mississauga Homes and Rentals

Our accountants check your eligibility for the First-Time Home Buyers’ GST/HST Rebate first, which is worth up to $50,000 on a new build. The full amount applies to homes at $1 million or less, tapers between $1 million and $1.5 million, and reaches nil above that. It covers agreements of purchase and sale entered into after 26 May 2025, so an earlier contract falls outside it.

Buyers who do not qualify as first time still have the standard GST/HST new housing rebate, worth up to $6,300 federally and phasing out entirely at $450,000 of consideration. Our accountants file it with the builder or directly with CRA depending on how your closing was structured. Landlords buying a new build claim the New Residential Rental Property rebate instead, which our team files after closing.

Ontario has announced it will rebate the full 8 percent provincial portion of HST for eligible first-time buyers, stacking on top of the federal amount. Our accountants confirm the current position against the legislation before a claim goes in, since the provincial measure is newer than the federal one.

Ownership Structure and Tax Planning for Mississauga Investors

Mississauga charges no municipal land transfer tax, so the same investment property costs materially less to acquire here than across the border in Toronto, where a municipal charge sits on top of the provincial one. Our team quantifies that difference against the rent each location supports. The Ontario land transfer tax, legal fees and inspection costs then go into your adjusted cost base, so the capital gain is already reduced by the time you sell.

Structure is the second decision. Where a holding company makes sense, our accountants weigh it against the high combined Ontario rate on passive rental income rather than assuming a corporation wins. Income splitting is narrower than it used to be, since the tax on split income rules limit dividends to family members unless they meet an exclusion. Our team tests those conditions before a structure is built rather than after CRA applies them.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Waqar, my accountant, and I can't say enough good things about his services. From the very beginning, it was clear that he values professionalism and has a deep understanding of accounting principles. His communication skills are outstanding. Waqar always takes the time to explain complex financial concepts in a way that is easy to understand, which has been incredibly helpful for me. Whether it’s through emails or phone calls, he is always responsive and makes it a point to address any questions I have promptly. I never felt like I was in the dark about my finances, which is a huge relief. One of the aspects I appreciate most about Waqar is his punctuality. He consistently meets deadlines, whether it’s for filing taxes or preparing financial reports. I’ve had experiences in the past where accountants would delay tasks, but Waqar has always delivered on time without compromising quality. Overall, I highly recommend Waqar for any accounting needs. His combination of expertise, clear communication, and reliability sets him apart from others in the field.

I have had the pleasure of working with Waqar for over 5 years for my personal and business taxes as well as tax planning. Waqar is a true professional, he is extremely knowledgeable in his field and always gives the best advice in the complex of scenarios. Waqar's patience and professionalism is highly impressive. He is very responsive and communicates really well. It is hard to find tax professionals who look at the big picture, I find that Waqar, always looks at my entire financial picture and gives tax advice which is the most appropriate for my situation. Tax time is stressful enough and working with Waqar has made this process a lot easier. I would highly recommend Waqar and his team to anyone looking for a great tax partner.

Got Any Questions?

Yes, if you are a foreign national, foreign corporation or taxable trustee. Ontario charges NRST at 25 percent of the purchase price. Exemptions cover a nominee, a protected person, and the spouse of a Canadian citizen or permanent resident. A rebate applies if you become a permanent resident within four years.

Yes, on agreements of purchase and sale signed after 26 May 2025. The full rebate applies to homes at $1 million or less and tapers to nil at $1.5 million. You must be the first person to occupy the home as your primary residence.

Yes. Every assignment of a newly built or substantially renovated home has been taxable for HST since 6 May 2022, regardless of your original intent. CRA also often treats the profit as business income, which removes the 50 percent capital gains inclusion rate.

Yes. The new housing rebate is only for owners who occupy the home, so CRA can recover it with interest. Landlords claim the New Residential Rental Property rebate instead, filed directly with CRA after closing.

No, not as an expense. Land transfer tax is added to the property’s adjusted cost base, which reduces your capital gain on sale. Keep the closing statement, because most owners cannot find it years later when the gain is calculated.

The full profit is taxed as business income, not a capital gain. Canada’s residential property flipping rule covers property owned under 365 consecutive days for dispositions from 1 January 2023, and the principal residence exemption does not apply. Death, separation, illness and job relocation are exceptions.

Personally, in most cases. Only individuals can claim the principal residence exemption, and rental income held in a corporation is passive investment income taxed at a high combined Ontario rate.

Claim every eligible expense first, including mortgage interest, property management, repairs and insurance. Capital cost allowance is optional and worth modelling, because CCA is recaptured as full income on sale. You can also time sales across tax years and offset capital losses against capital gains.
