How We Help
Residential real estate help for Hanover transactions.
Practical legal support for purchases, sales, refinances, condominium matters, and title-related closing details.
Hanover assignment agreements often arise when a builder purchase is transferred before the final closing date. The assignment can look like a straightforward resale between two buyers, but it is usually more layered. The assignor is transferring rights under an existing builder contract, and the assignee is stepping into that contract with its original purchase price, deposits, amendments, upgrade selections, adjustment clauses, occupancy wording, rebate obligations, and final closing requirements.
Goldstone Law PC helps Hanover clients review the full assignment package before the transaction becomes firm. For assignors, the review often focuses on whether the builder permits the transfer, what consent fee applies, how deposits will be repaid, whether an assignment premium is being paid, and whether the assignor is released from future responsibility. If release wording is unclear, the original buyer may still have concern if the assignee does not close with the builder.
For assignees, the review focuses on the deal being taken over. The assignee should know what deposits have already been paid, what credits are being provided, what adjustments or upgrade costs may still be charged, what the rebate language requires, and when mortgage funds will be needed. These details can affect the real cost of the property and should be reviewed before conditions are waived.
Assignment files may also raise HST, income tax, and rebate questions, especially where an assignment premium is involved or the intended use is not a simple principal residence. We identify where those issues appear in the documents so clients can obtain accounting advice before committing. Our role is to explain the legal terms clearly and help organize builder consent, signing, funds, and closing obligations.
For Hanover clients, assignment review is useful where documents, approvals, and lender communication may be coordinated across different communities. We help both sides understand what has been approved, what remains outstanding, and what should be ready before the final builder closing.

Common Questions
Questions about Hanover assignment agreements.
Can you review a Hanover assignment agreement before signing?
Yes. We review the assignment agreement and original builder contract so clients understand consent, deposits, fees, conditions, and closing obligations.
What should an assignor confirm?
The assignor should confirm builder consent, assignment fees, deposit repayment, profit treatment, release wording, and whether any obligations continue after assignment.
What should an assignee review?
The assignee should review the original purchase price, deposits, upgrades, adjustments, occupancy terms, rebate language, mortgage timing, and final funds.
Can intended use matter?
Yes. If the property may be used as a rental, second home, or investment, tax and rebate questions should be considered before finalizing the assignment.

Yes. Many builders charge assignment or consent fees and require forms and approval before recognizing the new buyer.
Can there be HST on assignment profit?
There can be HST and income tax issues where an assignment premium is involved. We flag legal issues, but clients should obtain accounting advice.
What can delay a Hanover assignment?
Delays can come from late consent, missing documents, unclear deposit credits, financing issues, tax questions, incomplete identification, or fee disputes.
When should I contact a lawyer?
Contact a lawyer before signing or waiving conditions, especially if builder consent, deposits, HST, financing, or final closing costs are unclear.
