Assignment Sales: Unlock Hidden Opportunities: Find Pre-Construction Properties Below Market Value.

Assignment sales offer a flexible and lucrative way to invest in real estate, providing distinct financial opportunities for both buyers and sellers. Our team specializes in guiding clients through this process, ensuring a smooth experience in Ontario's rapidly growing pre-construction market.

What Are Assignment Sales?

An assignment sale involves transferring the contract to purchase a pre-construction property. Instead of transferring ownership of the physical property, the original buyer (Assignor) sells their purchase agreement to a new buyer (Assignee) before the property is completed or registered. The Agreement of Purchase and Sale (APS) often contains an assignment clause, allowing the buyer to sell their rights to the property if circumstances change.

Why Choose Assignment Sales?

For Buyers:

• Avoid Bidding Wars: Secure a property below market value, avoiding the competition.
• Faster Possession: Move into your property sooner than waiting for new construction.
• Customization Options: Depending on construction progress, choose finishes and upgrades for your unit.
• Builder Incentives: Enjoy perks like Tarion Warranty coverage, capped development charges, and upgrade credits.
• Flexible Negotiations: Leverage the seller's situation to negotiate better pricing and deposit terms.

For Sellers:

• Quick Equity Recovery: Sell your contract and reclaim your deposit before project completion.
• Avoid Carrying Costs: Save on interim occupancy fees and closing costs.
• Potential Profit: Capitalize on market appreciation and earn a profit on your initial investment.
• Escape Clause: The assignment clause offers flexibility if life circumstances change unexpectedly.
