In Real Estate, an assignment of an Agreement of Purchase and Sale (APS) occurs when the original purchaser (Assignor) from the Builder agrees to allow a new purchaser (Assignee) to take over the contract with the Builder. The original purchaser does not have to take possession or title to the property. The new Buyer takes over and completes the property purchase with the Builder.
Why do people Assign?
Benefits of an Assignment
To the Seller (Assignor)
To the Buyer (Assignee)
Risks Associated with an Assignment
For the Buyer (Assignee) when you purchase an assignment you take on all the terms and conditions of the original Agreement of Purchase and Sale contract. So if the original Buyer did not get their Lawyer to review the agreement to make sure things such as levies were capped then those risks are passed on to you. Assignee can protect himself by making sure the Assignment agreement has a clause that makes offer conditional on your Lawyer reviewing the original APS.
Assignee is also responsible for all the costs associated with purchasing brand new: Tarion Warranty fees, Builder fees, Development Levies, Utility connection fees and contribution to Condo Board reserve fund.
For the Seller (Assignor) risks include responsibility for any assignment fees charge by the Builder. In the event that Assignee (Buyer) can't close the transaction then Builder may request that Assignor closes as per the terms of the original APS.
Builder will also stop communicating with Assignor and deal exclusively with Assignee once they have agreed to and executed assignment agreement. This makes it difficult for Assignor to get important updates. It's therefore important that Assignor Lawyer keeps in touch with both the Builder and Assignee Lawyer.
Tax implications (GST/HST) if it is determined that the primary intent of Assignor was to flip for profit (speak with a tax professional).
