Assignment Sales Require Professional Structuring
Structured Assignment Sale Services — From $5,650 + HST
Assignment sales are not traditional resale transactions.
They involve additional legal, financial, disclosure, builder, and timing considerations that require careful coordination and professional guidance. Our approach is designed to help clients structure assignment transactions clearly, strategically, and with a strong understanding of the associated risks and obligations.
Whether you are assigning a condominium, investment property, pre-construction purchase, or occupancy-stage unit, representation is structured around the complexity of the transaction and the level of support required.
We assist clients with assignment sales throughout Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, including condominium, investor, and occupancy-stage assignment transactions.
What is an Assignment Sale?
An assignment sale occurs when a buyer under an Agreement of Purchase and Sale (“APS”) sells or transfers their contractual interest in the property to another purchaser before final closing with the builder or original seller.
Assignment transactions may involve:
- builder consent requirements
- assignment fees
- disclosure obligations
- HST considerations
- occupancy and interim closing issues
- deposit transfers
- financing coordination
- investor timelines
- legal review and documentation
- marketing restrictions imposed by builders
These transactions are often significantly more complex than standard resale transactions.
Our Structured Approach
Traditional percentage-based commission structures do not always align well with assignment transactions.
Our approach focuses on:
- professional guidance
- transaction structure
- strategic marketing
- risk awareness
- and transparent fee discussions in advance
Representation may include:
- assignment pricing strategy
- review of builder assignment restrictions
- marketing and MLS® exposure (where permitted)
- buyer communication coordination
- assignment negotiations
- document coordination
- lawyer coordination
- transaction management support
- disclosure guidance
- condition and timeline management
