How We Help
Residential real estate help for Leaside transactions.
Practical legal support for purchases, sales, refinances, condominium matters, and title-related closing details.
Leaside assignment agreements often involve pre-construction condominium units, townhomes, or infill builder projects where the timing and final cost of the deal need careful attention. The assignment agreement may be negotiated between the original buyer and the new buyer, but the assignee is usually taking over the original builder contract. That contract may include deposits, amendments, upgrades, interim occupancy provisions, adjustment clauses, parking or locker details, rebate language, and final closing obligations.
Goldstone Law PC helps Leaside clients review the full assignment package before the transaction becomes firm. For assignors, the review often focuses on whether the builder permits the assignment, 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. Release wording matters because an original buyer may still be exposed if the assignee does not complete the builder closing.
For assignees, the review focuses on understanding the contract being accepted. The assignee should know what deposits have been paid, what credits apply, what adjustments may still be charged, whether occupancy fees apply, what upgrade costs remain, what the HST rebate language requires, and when mortgage funds will be needed. In Toronto, final funds should also account for municipal land transfer tax.
Assignment files can raise HST, income tax, and rebate questions, especially where an assignment premium or investor purpose is involved. We identify where those issues appear in the legal documents so clients can obtain accounting advice before committing. Our role is to explain the documents clearly, identify missing approvals, and help coordinate builder consent, signing, identity information, funds, and closing obligations.
For Leaside clients, careful review helps connect the paperwork to practical decisions about financing, moving plans, and final ownership. We help both sides understand what is settled, what remains conditional, and what should be prepared before the builder closing.
