Live Smart. Earn Smart. Own Smart — The Gateway of Lindsay’s New Live & Earn Home is a Game-Changer for First-Time Buyers
July 2025
Are you a first-time homebuyer in Ontario looking for a smarter way to step into homeownership? Welcome to The Gateway of Lindsay, an exciting new home community by Bromont Homes
and Camcos Living. At the heart of this development is the innovative Live & Earn Home—a beautifully designed 40' detached home that offers space, versatility, and the potential to generate income right from day one.
🏡 Introducing the Live & Earn Home
The Live & Earn Home is a spacious and thoughtfully designed detached home with:
- Approx. 2,726 sq. ft. of living space (plus the option to finish the basement for an additional 1,090 sq. ft.)
- Up to 6 bedrooms
- 4 bathrooms
- 2 full kitchens with appliances
- 2 laundry rooms
- Multiple private entrances, enabling complete separation between living spaces
This home isn't just a place to live—it’s an opportunity to earn. Whether you’re renting to a tenant, hosting family, or creating a multigenerational home, the flexibility is built right in.
💰 Turn Your Home Into an Income Stream
What makes the Live & Earn Home so attractive for first-time buyers is its built-in potential for rental income. With two separate units, you can live in one and rent the other, helping to offset your mortgage and ease monthly costs.
Better still, many lenders now recognize rental income in mortgage qualification, meaning this design could actually help you qualify for a larger mortgage and make your dream of homeownership a reality—even in today’s competitive market.
🧾 New GST Relief: Up to $50,000 in Savings for First-Time Buyers
The Government of Canada has recently rolled out a powerful incentive that first-time buyers at The Gateway of Lindsay can take advantage of: the First-Time Homebuyers' GST Rebate.
Here’s what you need to know:
- If you're a first-time buyer purchasing a new home directly from a builder, you may be eligible to recover 100% of the GST paid—up to $50,000.
- The home must be valued at $1 million or less to qualify for the full rebate.
- For homes priced between $1 million and $1.5 million, the rebate is gradually phased out.
- Homes purchased on or after May 27, 2025, and constructed before 2031 (and completed before 2036) are eligible.
This GST rebate significantly reduces your upfront costs and improves affordability—especially when paired with the income-earning power of the Live & Earn Home.
🌟 Why the Live & Earn Home Is a Rare Opportunity
- Affordability: Rental income + tax rebate = lowered ownership cost
- Flexibility: Live in one unit, rent the other—or support multigenerational living
- Investment Potential: Own a rental-ready home without needing expensive renovations
- Prime Location: Lindsay, Ontario offers small-town charm with modern amenities
- Reputable Builders: Brought to you by Bromont Homes and Camcos Living—names you can trust
