Frequently Asked Questions

Our Daniels FirstHome™ Communities are everything you’d want a new home to be. Quality-built, attainable, stylish and conveniently close to amenities that matter most.

Since 2004, thousands of individuals, couples and families who were unable to enter the new home marketplace through traditional methods, have purchased a new Daniels FirstHome™ because of the special programs we offer. We offer a 5% Gradual Deposit Payment Plan to help make the deposit payments more achievable. We offer more flexibility with a variety of move-in dates as quick as 60 days to 1 year from when you purchase. We offer lifestyle incentives that truly matter, and new home buyers can walk through a model of every home design before they purchase so they can see, touch and feel the home that best suits their lifestyle.

Our Daniels FirstHome™ Communities have always been in high demand with communities typically selling out within hours of going on sale to hundreds of prospective buyers lining up weeks in advance of a sales event in hopes to purchase a home.

That’s why we have evolved our Daniels FirstHome Communities program to make purchasing at one of our communities EASIER, SMARTER and MORE FLEXIBLE to your needs.

You can read more on how we’ve evolved on our Daniels First Access Workshop page.

At Daniels, making homeownership easy and affordable is an ongoing commitment. Over the years, we’ve offered first-time buyers innovative programs that provide help where it’s needed most – the deposit. We work closely with financial institutions to make qualifying for a mortgage more accessible. We also work hard to keep your carrying costs low through special lifestyle incentives and by offering only the community amenities that our homeowners tell us they consider the most important. Plus, by building the homes before offering them for sale, we are able to take advantage of the previous year’s construction costs and pass those savings along to you. Each of these initiatives allows us to offer something truly unique at our FirstHome™ Communities and helps pave your way towards homeownership.

Absolutely not! At Daniels, we’ve been building new homes for 38 years. Our commitment to excellent quality is one of the many reasons we are recognized as one of Canada’s pre-eminent builder/developers.

It all begins from the incredible affordability with our unique special deposit program. Daniels has exemplary, award-winning customer service. A Daniels FirstHome™ is a great long-term investment.

With the neighbourhood complete before occupancies, residents can start enjoying landscaped yards as soon as they move in. PLUS, our build-it-first communities are know to retain their curb appeal and resale value, for years to come. In addition, each new home will be backed by the full Tarion Warranty Program for New Home Construction and supported by Daniels’ excellent quality and service. We’ve already created several, successful pre-built communities across the GTA, and they have been tremendously well received.

It’s always a good time to buy at a Daniels FirstHome™ Community. We work hard to remove roadblocks on the path to homeownership by offering well-designed, quality-constructed homes in great locations – at attainable prices that truly enable first-time buyers to own a home.

FirstHome™ Communities offer more home choices than ever before. Some communities include condominium suites, as well as condominium townhomes.

Yes, Daniels FirstHome™ Communities are condominium communities, and as a homeowner this is a tremendous benefit to you. By living in a condominium community you will be asked to pay a maintenance fee. This fee will go towards the upkeep and maintenance of your community, including the exterior of your home. For example the allotted amount will help take care of things like snow removal and grass cutting as well as ensuring that any play equipment and public spaces are well taken care of.

The APS is the Agreement of Purchase and Sale and is the legally binding document you sign when you purchase a home.

The purchase price of the homes will be 100% HST inclusive.
