有个发展商的说,HST 改回GST+PST后,建筑成本上涨,因而新房的价格会更高。 俺还没有悟出其中的道道,这里贴出来,欢迎众同学解读和批判。

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, 听到很多小的建筑商都在买地, 建房,拿HST Refund, 房子 准备2013 HST撤销后卖出。。。
