New Builds in Whitby by Home Type
- Townhomes. 12 communities, starting prices from $439,990.
- Detached homes. 8 communities, published detached prices from $764,593.
- Condos and stacked towns. 2 communities.
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.
Where New Homes Are Being Built in Whitby
Whitby is growing in Brooklin and on the lands north of Taunton Road. Most new homes are freehold townhomes and detached homes, with a wider choice of lot widths than most Peel or Halton communities at the same price.
For neighbourhoods, commute and local contract points, read the Whitby and Oshawa buyer guide.
What a New House in Whitby Costs Beyond the Price
- Deposits. Builders usually ask for 10 to 20 percent over the first year or two. Map yours with the deposit schedule tool.
- 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 Whitby?
Dream Villa currently tracks 15 new-home communities in Whitby: 9 selling now and 6 launching soon. The list changes as builders release and sell out phases.
What is the starting price of a new build in Whitby?
The lowest published starting price on our Whitby list today is $420,997. 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 Whitby?
Yes. 1 of the 15 communities on our Whitby list has move-in ready or quick-closing homes today.
Which builders are selling new homes in Whitby?
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 Whitby?
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 Whitby?
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.
