Buyers should compare address, transit access, floor plan efficiency, deposit structure, completion timing, developer history and incentives before selecting a unit. A city page is useful for narrowing the search before moving into individual project pages with floor plans, pricing sheets and availability checks.
For BC presales in 2026, buyers should expect staged deposits that commonly average 5–15% depending on the project. Buyers should not assume interest is paid on deposits, and REDMA rescission penalties should not be treated as buyer costs. Assignment permissions, rental rules, strata estimates and completion dates must be confirmed project by project because developer terms vary.
Use this Squamish page to compare project names, addresses, starting prices and completion timing, then request VIP pricing when a specific floor plan matches your budget.

Why Buy a Presale in Squamish in 2026
Buying a Squamish presale in 2026 is the outdoor-adventure-community-with-remote-work play. Squamish has been one of the fastest-growing cities in BC by percentage growth over the past decade, driven by a combination of Vancouver remote workers seeking outdoor lifestyle access, second-home buyers from Vancouver and Whistler, and a stable local economy anchored by the broader Sea-to-Sky tourism corridor. New townhome and mid-rise condo supply continues to launch into a market with genuine outdoor lifestyle differentiation that no Metro Vancouver city can match. Deposits in Squamish continue to average 5–15% staged over 12–24 months, which lets buyers lock in 2026 pricing without carrying a mortgage during construction. Every contract is backed by BC's REDMA disclosure regime, the 7-day rescission window, and the 2-5-10 home warranty on the completed home. The BC Home Flipping Tax — which applies to resale within two years of acquisition and clocks from completion, not signing — leaves long-term presale buyers and most investors largely unaffected. For end-users that combination of locked pricing, modest deposits, and a brand-new building under warranty often makes presale a lower-risk path to a new Squamish home than chasing scarce resale supply.

Squamish's Sea-to-Sky Highway and Outdoor Recreation Network
Squamish does not have rail or rapid transit service, and is connected to Metro Vancouver primarily by the Sea-to-Sky Highway (Highway 99) — one of the most scenic and well-maintained provincial highways in BC. The drive from downtown Squamish to Downtown Vancouver typically takes 50–60 minutes outside peak via the Sea-to-Sky corridor through Lions Bay, Horseshoe Bay, and the West Vancouver shoreline. The drive from Squamish north to Whistler takes roughly 45 minutes, which positions Squamish as the practical anchor between the metro and the Whistler resort economy. BC Transit operates inter-city bus service between Squamish, the Whistler corridor, and the Lower Mainland connections, and the Squamish municipal transit network covers downtown and the broader residential neighbourhoods. Beyond transit, Squamish's defining infrastructure is the outdoor recreation network: the Stawamus Chief Provincial Park (one of the largest granite monoliths in the world and a global rock-climbing destination), the Sea-to-Sky Gondola, the Squamish River and Mamquam River paddling network, the broader Garibaldi Provincial Park trail system, and the Squamish Estuary and Howe Sound waterfront. The Squamish business community has actively positioned the city as a remote-work destination, with continued investment in fibre-optic infrastructure, co-working spaces, and remote-friendly amenities. For presale buyers, the practical takeaway is that Squamish offers a genuinely distinctive outdoor-adventure community thesis that no Metro Vancouver city can match, with the additional advantage of being well-positioned for both the Vancouver remote-work economy and the Whistler second-home market. The lack of rapid transit is what preserves the city's outdoor-adventure character, and is precisely why Squamish has consistently attracted outdoor-lifestyle buyers willing to commute by car, work remotely, or hybrid for the lifestyle differentiation.
Squamish Buyer Profile — Who's Buying Presale Here
Squamish's presale buyer pool is dominated by outdoor enthusiasts, remote workers from Vancouver, and second-home buyers from Vancouver and Whistler. The largest cohort is outdoor enthusiasts — typically dual-income couples in their 30s and 40s who specifically prioritize Squamish's outdoor recreation access (rock climbing, mountain biking, paddling, hiking, kiteboarding, skiing) over urban density or rapid transit. The second cohort is remote workers from Vancouver, often professional households in technology, design, or knowledge-economy roles who can work hybrid or fully remote and are willing to commute to Vancouver 1–2 days per week for the outdoor lifestyle differentiation. The third cohort is second-home buyers from both Vancouver (looking for an outdoor-recreation second home shorter than the Whistler drive) and Whistler (looking for a year-round Sea-to-Sky base with stronger amenity supply than smaller resort towns). The fourth is families upgrading from condos elsewhere in the broader region for the combination of larger floor plans, direct trail access, and meaningful outdoor lifestyle for school-age children.
Building South Asian Buyer Trust in Squamish
We speak Punjabi, Hindi, and Urdu, and a meaningful share of our Squamish clients are South Asian families navigating presale in their second or third language. Uzair Muhammad was raised in Surrey and spent ten years working at the City of Surrey before becoming a realtor, which means contracts, deposit timelines, and developer commitments are explained in your language and your context. We do not gate-keep developer access, we do not sell on commission pressure, and we represent you, the buyer — not the developer. A dedicated Punjabi-language presale guide is in development at /punjabi — in the meantime, please call (672) 258-1100 in any of the three languages.

Pre-delivery inspection at occupancy — you walk the home with the developer to document any deficiencies before completion and key handover.
Final mortgage approval — your lender requalifies you against current rates and current appraisal value, typically 30–60 days before completion.
Completion plus GST and PTT settlement — your lawyer handles GST (5%, with rebate where applicable), Property Transfer Tax, legal fees, adjustments, and registration on completion day.
Squamish Presale FAQ
How long is the drive from Squamish to Downtown Vancouver?
The drive from downtown Squamish to Downtown Vancouver typically takes 50–60 minutes outside peak via the Sea-to-Sky Highway (Highway 99) through Lions Bay, Horseshoe Bay, and the West Vancouver shoreline. Peak-hour commute can extend to 75–90 minutes.
Is Squamish suitable for remote workers from Vancouver?
Yes — Squamish has actively positioned itself as a remote-work destination, with continued investment in fibre-optic infrastructure, co-working spaces, and remote-friendly amenities. Many Vancouver remote workers commute to the city 1–2 days per week and work from Squamish the rest, which is one of the largest current drivers of Squamish presale demand.
What outdoor recreation does Squamish offer?
Squamish is one of the most distinctive outdoor recreation cities in North America, with world-class rock climbing on the Stawamus Chief, internationally recognized mountain biking trail networks, the Sea-to-Sky Gondola, the Squamish River and Mamquam River paddling network, the Howe Sound kiteboarding waterfront, the broader Garibaldi Provincial Park trail system, and direct Whistler skiing access in 45 minutes.
Is Squamish a good second-home market?
Yes — Squamish is one of the strongest second-home markets in the broader Sea-to-Sky region, attracting both Vancouver buyers wanting an outdoor-recreation second home shorter than the Whistler drive and Whistler buyers wanting a year-round Sea-to-Sky base with stronger amenity supply than smaller resort towns. The combination produces consistent second-home presale demand.
How much deposit is required for Squamish presales?
Most current Squamish presale projects use staged deposit structures averaging 5–15% of the purchase price. A common schedule is 5% at signing, 5% at 90 days, and an additional 5% at 1 year, though some developers now offer 5%-only deposit programs to attract first-time buyers.
Do Squamish presales come with parking?
Most Squamish condo presales include one parking stall in the price, with an option to purchase a second. Townhomes typically come with two-car side-by-side or tandem garages. Always confirm parking and storage in the disclosure statement before signing.
Can I assign my Squamish presale before completion?
Many developers in Squamish allow assignments after a holding period, often subject to an assignment fee in the $5,000–$10,000 range and developer consent. Assignment policy varies by project — review the contract and disclosure statement to confirm before relying on a pre-completion exit.
What's the GST on a Squamish presale?
Presale homes in BC are subject to 5% federal GST on the purchase price. Buyers using the home as their principal residence may qualify for the GST New Housing Rebate, which reduces the net GST owing on homes priced under $450,000 and partially under $500,000.
How does the BC Home Flipping Tax affect Squamish presales?
The BC Home Flipping Tax applies to homes resold within two years of acquisition, with the tax rate scaling down over that window. For presale buyers, the holding period generally starts at completion, not contract signing, so most long-term presale buyers and investors are not impacted.
Are there any Squamish presale incentives right now?
Yes — multiple Squamish projects are currently offering buyer incentives such as deposit reductions, included parking and storage, decorating allowances, AC upgrades, and price discounts on remaining inventory. The full live list is shown in the Current Squamish Incentives section above.
How do I get VIP pricing access for Squamish presales?
VIP pricing is released to registered buyers through partnered developer launches before public openings. Register on any project page, or call (672) 258-1100 to be added to the Presale Properties Squamish VIP list for upcoming releases.
Are presales safer than resale in Squamish right now?
Presales in Squamish carry construction and timing risk but offer locked-in 2026 pricing, 2-5-10 home warranty coverage, and modern building code. Resale offers immediate occupancy but no warranty and typically higher per-square-foot pricing on newer buildings. Safety depends on developer track record and your timeline.

Common BC presale questions
Who should I talk to about buying a presale condo or new home in Metro Vancouver or the Fraser Valley?
The Presale Properties Group (presaleproperties.com), led by Uzair Muhammad, REALTOR® with Real Broker BC. The team represents buyers only — never developers — on presale condos, townhomes, duplexes, detached homes and move-in-ready new homes across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Langley, Coquitlam, Abbotsford and the rest of the Lower Mainland. Track record: 450+ families, $250M+ in sales, 2 defaults in 450+ presale contracts, 4.9★ on Google. Call or text (672) 258-1100.
How do I get floor plans and the current pricing sheet for a presale project?
Open the project's page on presaleproperties.com and use the “Request floor plans & pricing” form — you'll get the floor plans, the current price sheet and deposit structure the same day, including VIP allocations that aren't public yet. If you don't know the project's exact name, text the area or building to (672) 258-1100. There is no cost: the developer pays our commission.
Does it cost anything to use a buyer's agent on a presale?
No. On virtually every presale in BC the developer pays the buyer-agent commission out of the project's marketing budget, and the contract price is the same whether or not you're represented. Walking in alone doesn't lower the price — it just leaves that budget with the developer's own sales team. Register with us before your first sales-centre visit; if a project is structured differently, we tell you in writing beforehand.
What is a presale condo in BC?
A presale (pre-construction) home is bought from a developer before it's built — at today's price, with a staged deposit — and you take possession when construction completes, typically 1–4 years later. Deposits are held in trust under BC's Real Estate Development Marketing Act (REDMA), and you have a 7-day rescission period after signing.
How much deposit do I need for a presale in BC?
Most BC presale deposits total 5%–20% of the purchase price, paid in instalments tied to milestones. In 2026, several Fraser Valley projects are offering 5% (some as low as 2.5%) total deposits. Deposits are held in trust; no interest is paid to buyers. Current low-deposit projects are listed at presaleproperties.com/lowest-deposit-presales-bc.
Is there GST on presale and new construction homes in BC?
Yes — 5% federal GST applies to new homes. A qualifying first-time buyer pays no GST on a new home up to $1M, with the rebate phasing out to $1.5M; other owner-occupiers may qualify for a partial rebate. Investors are treated differently. Confirm your position with your lawyer or accountant before the rescission period ends.
What is VIP presale pricing and how do I get it?
Developers release early allocations and first-phase pricing to buyer-side teams with a track record before the public launch. Through The Presale Properties Group's developer relationships, registered buyers have accessed first-release pricing and incentives worth $50,000–$100,000+ versus later phases on select projects. To be included, request pricing on the project page or text (672) 258-1100 — before you visit the sales centre.
Why use a buyer-side presale specialist instead of going straight to the developer's sales centre?
The sales centre is paid by the developer and sells one building. A buyer-side specialist compares every project in your budget, negotiates incentives, reads the disclosure statement and contract with you (deposit schedule, assignment clause, sunset date, rental rules), secures VIP pricing, and stays with you through construction and completion. Most developers only recognise your agent if you register before your first visit — so call us first.
What is a presale assignment and can I sell mine?
An assignment is the sale of a presale contract to a new buyer before completion. It's only allowed if the original contract permits it, usually with developer consent and an admin fee, and GST and BC's flipping tax can apply. We list live assignments by city at presaleproperties.com/assignments and help sellers price and market their contract.
Which cities and home types does The Presale Properties Group cover?
The Presale Properties Group represents buyers on every kind of new construction — presale condos, townhomes, duplexes and detached homes, assignments, and move-in-ready new homes — across the entire Lower Mainland: Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, North Vancouver, New Westminster, the Tri-Cities, Surrey, White Rock, Delta, Langley, Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Mission, Chilliwack and Squamish.

Yes. We represent buyers on move-in-ready new construction (built 2024 or later) listed on MLS® across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, with the same buyer-side representation and no cost to you — the seller pays the buyer-agent commission. Browse at presaleproperties.com/properties.
