Your Tarion Warranty
The Home Construction Regulatory Authority (HCRA) is the regulator of new home builders, but Tarion administers warranties and protections for purchasers of new homes! After you move in, there are specific statutory warranties: the 30-day, 1-year, 2-year and 7-year warranty, covering major defects. These warranties begin the day you take occupancy.
Learn more about Your Tarion Warranty on our blog, ActivaLearn, or download our handout here!
