有個發展商的說,HST 改回GST+PST後,建築成本上漲,因而新房的價格會更高。 俺還沒有悟出其中的道道,這裡貼出來,歡迎眾同學解讀和批判。

Don't Wait on the HST Change . It Makes You Pay More!
Click here and enter your purchase price before tax to see your savings if any under the old GST/PST system and the current HST tax system . You may find it's not worth giving up the dream home for little to no savings or you could actually end up paying more.
Construction costs are lower with HST than they were with the old GST/PST system. Once the government converts back to the GST/PST construction costs may actually go up meaning purchase prices will also go up to cover those cost increases by waiting.
While HST can be 100% refunded, PST to developers is a cost.
目前, 聽到很多小的建築商都在買地, 建房,拿HST Refund, 房子 准備2013 HST撤銷後賣出。。。
