Buying pre-construction in Scarborough
Scarborough is Toronto's eastern district and one of the more affordable ways into a brand-new condo in the city. Almost everything being built here is mid- and high-rise condos, with a smaller group of stacked and back-to-back townhome projects; new detached homes are rare. Most of the projects we track in Scarborough are still at the planning stage — rezoning and site-plan applications that haven't launched yet — so the list you can actually buy today is much shorter than the pipeline.
Where the new building is happening:
- Kingston Road — the longest run of new mid-rise condos in our Scarborough listings, from Birch Cliff and Cliffside east toward Scarborough Village.
- Eglinton Avenue East and the Golden Mile — large master-planned redevelopments along Line 5 Eglinton, which opened in February 2026 with its eastern end at Kennedy station.
- Scarborough Centre — towers around Scarborough Town Centre, where the Line 2 subway extension will stop.
- Sheppard Avenue East and Agincourt — including the plans for Agincourt Mall, and further north the Woodside Square and Malvern Town Centre sites.
Transit is the big variable. The Scarborough RT closed in 2023, and the Line 2 extension from Kennedy to Sheppard Avenue and McCowan Road is targeted for 2029–2030 as of 2026, with reports that it could slip. Projects near the future Scarborough Centre and Sheppard–McCowan stations are priced partly on that subway, so compare a project's occupancy date with the transit timeline before you buy.
We register clients for VIP pricing before public launch and compare deposit structures across projects. On a planning-stage project, register on its page and we'll tell you when it launches.

Buying a pre-construction condo in Scarborough: what to know
How pre-construction deposits work
Instead of a single down payment, Scarborough condo builders collect the deposit in instalments: typically 5 percent on signing, then further 5 percent tranches at set dates, adding up to 15 to 20 percent within the first one to two years, with the balance due on final closing. The schedule is one of the first things to compare between projects, because a longer ladder is easier to fund and a shorter one usually comes with a lower price. Deposits are held in trust and covered by Tarion deposit protection up to the statutory limit. Of the 162 projects we track in Scarborough, 13 are selling now, with a median published starting price of $695,800.
The 10-day cooling-off period
Every new condominium purchase agreement in Ontario comes with a 10-day rescission period under the Condominium Act. Buyers use it to have a lawyer review the disclosure statement and the builder's schedules, confirm mortgage pre-approval, and check for caps on closing adjustments. Walk away within the window and the deposit is returned in full; after it, the agreement is firm.
Interim occupancy and final closing
Condo buyers move in, or lease out, at interim occupancy, often months before the building is registered as a condominium corporation. During that period you pay an occupancy fee made up of interest on the unpaid balance, estimated property taxes and maintenance, rather than a mortgage. Final closing, when title transfers and the mortgage funds, follows registration. Across Scarborough the projects we track are currently scheduled to occupy in 2026 (4), 2027 (6), 2028 (2).
Closing costs, HST and land transfer tax
Ontario land transfer tax applies province-wide; there is no municipal land transfer tax outside the City of Toronto, and first-time buyers can claim a provincial rebate. New construction attracts HST. End users assign the federal and Ontario new housing rebates to the builder, so the advertised price is usually net of them; investors pay the rebate portion at closing and recover it through the new residential rental property rebate after leasing the unit for a year. Budget separately for legal fees, utility connections and the adjustments for development charges and levies, and ask for those adjustments to be capped in the agreement.
Assignments before closing
Many buyers sell their agreement before the building completes. Whether you can depends on the builder's assignment clause and fee, and the profit on an assignment is taxable. Our assignment guides explain the mechanics city by city, and registered buyers in Scarborough are told when a builder opens or closes its assignment window.
