How an assignment purchase works
You are buying the original buyer's contract with the developer, not a completed home. You take over the remaining deposit schedule and complete directly with the developer when the building finishes. The developer must consent in writing, an assignment fee usually applies, and GST applies on the assignment amount — so the contract, not the listing photo, decides whether the deal works.
Assignments by city
We are currently marketing 12 assignments across 2 cities. Inventory changes weekly and some contracts cannot be advertised publicly, so the private list is usually longer than this page.
Before you write an offer on an assignment
Read the assignment clause and the developer's consent conditions first, then compare the assignment price against the developer's current price for the same floor plan. Budget for GST on the assignment amount, the assignment fee, and BC's home flipping tax if the original contract is under 730 days old. We review all of it before price is discussed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is buying an assignment cheaper than buying from the developer?
Sometimes. Assignments often trade at or below the developer's current price for the same floor plan, because the buyer inherits the contract as it stands. The comparison that matters is assignment price versus today's developer price, not versus the original contract price.
Do I need the developer's approval to buy an assignment?
Yes. Nearly every BC presale contract requires the developer's written consent to an assignment, and most charge an assignment fee. Consent conditions are set out in the contract.
Is there GST on an assignment purchase?
GST applies on the assignment amount as well as on the new home at completion. Treatment depends on the parties and the contract, so confirm with your accountant — this is general information, not tax advice.
