Durham Region New Builds for sale

View all

Buying new construction is different from buying resale, with builder contracts, deposit structures, closing costs and timelines that catch many buyers off guard. RJ Scarlett guides you through the entire process — and represents your interests at no cost to you on most new-build purchases.

The benefits of buying new

New builds offer contemporary open-concept designs, current energy and building standards, lower early maintenance and Tarion warranty coverage. You often get to select lots, floor plans, finishes and upgrades to suit your taste.

What to watch in builder contracts

Builder agreements differ from resale deals — development charges and closing adjustments, deposit schedules, occupancy vs. final closing, and upgrade pricing all need careful review. RJ helps you understand the fine print before you sign, so there are no costly surprises.

Resale, assignment and new-build pockets

Seaton (Pickering), Brooklin (Whitby), and new communities in Clarington and Courtice are among Durham’s most active new-build areas. RJ can advise on builder purchases, assignment sales and brand-new resale homes alike.
