Canadian Substantial Renovation GST/HST Calculator

Determine if your flip triggers mandatory CRA GST/HST on the final sale.

Warning: CRA rules dictate that a "substantial renovation" (gutting >90% of non-structural elements) treats the property as a new build. You must charge and remit GST/HST on the final sale price.
Good News: Since this is not a substantial renovation, the sale of used residential housing is generally exempt from GST/HST.

* You may be able to claim Input Tax Credits (ITCs) on the materials/services purchased during the renovation to offset this amount.
