What is a presale condo in BC?
A presale (pre-construction) condo is a home you buy from a developer before it is built, typically at today's price with a staged deposit, and you take possession when construction completes — often 1–4 years later.

The Surrey presale market includes Clayton Heights, Morgan Heights, Newton, Surrey Central, Fleetwood, South Surrey, Bear Creek, Guildford. 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 Surrey page to compare project names, addresses, starting prices and completion timing, then request VIP pricing when a specific floor plan matches your budget. PresaleProperties.com can verify the latest developer release, incentives, deposit schedule and appointment availability before you commit to a worksheet or contract.

Common BC presale questions
How much deposit do I need for a presale in BC?
Deposits are staged and typically total 5%–20% of the purchase price, paid in instalments tied to milestones (e.g., on signing, then at set intervals). The exact structure varies by project and developer.
Do buyers pay commission on a presale?
No. With The Presale Properties Group, buyers pay $0 — the developer pays the buyer-agent commission. Using a buyer-side agent does not increase your price.
Is there GST on presale condos in BC?
Yes. New-construction homes in BC are subject to 5% GST. A partial GST rebate may apply for owner-occupiers depending on the price; investors are treated differently. Confirm specifics for your situation.
Are presale deposits protected in BC?
Under BC's Real Estate Development Marketing Act (REDMA), presale deposits are generally held in trust. Protections and conditions depend on the contract and developer.
What is an assignment sale?
An assignment is the sale of a presale contract to a new buyer before the building completes. Assignment is only allowed if the original developer contract permits it, and tax (including GST on the assignment) can apply.
Why use a buyer-side presale specialist instead of going to the developer's sales centre?
The developer's sales staff represent the developer's interests. A buyer-side specialist represents only you — comparing projects, negotiating incentives, reviewing contracts and disclosure statements, and accessing VIP pricing — at no cost to you.
