New Builds in Richmond Hill by Home Type
- Townhomes. 11 communities, starting prices from $524,990.
- Semi-detached homes. 1 community.
- Detached homes. 7 communities, published detached prices from $1,297,990.
Some builders publish prices after the HST rebate and some before, so each community above shows its own basis. A community's starting price is usually its smallest home. Lot width, garage type and what is included change the price more than the model name does.

What a New House in Richmond Hill Costs Beyond the Price

- The $130,000 HST rebate. See if you qualify and what it does to your price.
- Closing costs. Land transfer tax, legal fees and builder adjustments are due at closing. Total them with the closing costs calculator.
- The mortgage at closing. You qualify again at closing, at the rates of that day. Test it with the closing day readiness check.
Questions Buyers Ask
How many pre-construction projects are there in Richmond Hill?
Dream Villa currently tracks 14 new-home communities in Richmond Hill: 11 selling now and 3 launching soon. The list changes as builders release and sell out phases.
What is the starting price of a new build in Richmond Hill?
The lowest published starting price on our Richmond Hill list today is $524,990. Prices change with each release, and some builders have not published prices yet. Ask for the current price list before you compare.
Are there move-in ready new homes in Richmond Hill?
Yes. 2 of the 14 communities on our Richmond Hill list have move-in ready or quick-closing homes today.
Which builders are selling new homes in Richmond Hill?
Builder and community names are not shown on the public list. They are sent with the current price list, floor plans and site plan when you ask on any community.
Do I need a realtor to buy a new home from a builder in Richmond Hill?
You do not have to use one, but the sales office works for the builder. Builders typically pay the buyer's agent's commission on new construction, so representation usually costs the buyer nothing; confirm this for your project before you sign. Register your own agent on or before your first visit, because many builders only recognise an agent who is there at first contact.
Is there a cooling-off period on a new home in Richmond Hill?
Only on new condos, which have 10 days under the Condominium Act. Freehold homes have no cooling-off period, so have the agreement reviewed before you sign.
