How We Help
Residential real estate help for Hawkesbury transactions.
Practical legal support for purchases, sales, refinances, condominium matters, and title-related closing details.
Hawkesbury assignment agreements often involve a builder purchase being transferred before the final closing date. The assignment may appear to be a simple agreement between the original buyer and the new buyer, but the assignee is usually taking over the original builder contract. That contract may include the purchase price, deposits, amendments, upgrades, occupancy terms, adjustment clauses, rebate wording, and final closing obligations that are not repeated in full in the assignment agreement.
Goldstone Law PC helps Hawkesbury clients review the full package before the deal becomes firm. For assignors, the review usually focuses on whether the builder permits the assignment, what consent fee applies, how deposits will be reimbursed, whether an assignment premium is being paid, and whether the assignor is released from future responsibility. A release should be confirmed in writing rather than assumed from the fact that a new buyer is stepping in.
For assignees, the review is about understanding the contract being accepted. The assignee should know what has already been paid, what credits apply, what adjustments may still be charged, what the rebate wording requires, and when mortgage funds will be needed. These details can affect the real cost of the deal and should be reviewed before conditions are waived.
Assignment files can also raise HST, income tax, and rebate questions, particularly where an assignment premium or investment intention is involved. We identify those issues in the legal documents so clients can obtain accounting advice before making final decisions. Our role is to explain the wording clearly, flag missing approvals, and help organize builder consent, signing, funds, identity information, and closing obligations.
For Hawkesbury clients, assignment review can be especially useful when parties are coordinating from different Eastern Ontario communities. We help clarify what has been approved, what remains conditional, and what should be ready before final builder closing.

Common Questions
Questions about Hawkesbury assignment agreements.
Can you review a Hawkesbury 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.
Can the builder charge an assignment fee?
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 Hawkesbury 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.
