Tarion, marking 50 years of protecting Ontario homebuyers, reports a sharp decline in new home construction from over 75,000 units in 2022 to 25,000 in 2025, the lowest in 30 years. Recent government measures have sparked optimism with rising home sales and increased warranty enrollments. Despite a fragile market and a 150% rise in real estate insolvencies, Tarion provided nearly $40 million in consumer support in 2025. The deposit protection program offers up to $100,000 coverage for new home buyers who register within 45 days of purchase, ensuring deposit safety and builder verification.
