Addington Highlands, a township in the Lennox and Addington census division, counted about 2,534 residents in the last census. We close real estate files here for a flat fee, HST included, covering purchases, sales, and mortgage refinances alike.
Our charges include HST. Disbursements and, on a purchase, Land Transfer Tax are extra and billed at cost — itemized upfront, in writing, never hidden.
Prices are “our charges” and include HST. Disbursements and Land Transfer Tax are extra, at cost, estimated in writing before you commit.
Every figure is from Statistics Canada’s 2021 Census of Population — real published data, current until the 2026 Census releases (2027).

The Addington Highlands-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Registration for Addington Highlands closings takes place at the Lennox Land Registry Office (LRO #29), filed electronically through ONLAND (Teraview), the standard path for Ontario transactions.
You don’t “set up” property tax — we prorate it. The statement of adjustments credits whoever prepaid; after closing, the municipality bills you directly and you can enrol in pre-authorized payments.
ID verification, document review, and signing happen online — no office visit needed. In-person signings remain available across the province if you prefer.
Because Addington Highlands has no municipal land transfer tax, buyers here owe only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax on closing. StatCan's 2021 Census put total private dwellings in the township at 2,052, with 1,122 occupied by usual residents — again pointing to a meaningful share of seasonal or vacant properties. Deals register at the Lennox Land Registry Office (LRO #29), filed electronically through ONLAND. Our upfront quote lays out the provincial LTT estimate, any rebate you may be eligible for, and our flat legal fee as one clear number before you commit.
Financing, inspection, status certificate — your offer’s conditions are legal protections, and waiving them is a legal decision. We review before you sign and flag the risks in plain language.
Buying pre-construction or an assignment carries its own tax and disclosure rules — ask us before you commit so nothing catches you at closing.
Sellers in Addington Highlands go through Ontario's usual closing steps with us: we discharge the existing mortgage, deal with the buyer's requisitions, and get your net proceeds calculated and released promptly on closing day. Land transfer tax is a buyer's expense, not a seller's, so it won't touch your bottom line. We check in at each milestone of an Addington Highlands file so the process stays predictable.
Sellers don’t pay LTT. Your closing costs are the legal fee, discharge-related disbursements, and any mortgage payout penalties your lender sets.
We obtain your mortgage discharge statement, answer the buyer’s requisitions, and prorate taxes and utilities on the statement of adjustments.
Funds are wired the day of closing where possible. Selling a condo? We coordinate the status certificate the buyer’s lawyer will request.
Our Mortgage service takes care of new purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Addington Highlands properties, priced at the same flat, HST-included rate every time. We check the commitment letter against the file, register the charge at the Lennox Land Registry Office, and confirm the lender's conditions before funds are released. One process regardless of whether the mortgage is new, refinanced, or private.
A new charge on a home you already own. We handle the lender’s requirements and register it — one flat fee.
Switching lenders or borrowing more? We manage the payout and discharge of your old mortgage and register the new one.
Borrowing from or lending to a private party. We paper it properly, register the charge, and protect your interests.
Yes — you don't need a lawyer's office nearby to close here. We handle document review, signing, and closing by phone, email, and e-signature.
No. Buyers pay only the provincial land transfer tax; the township has no municipal transfer tax of its own.
Our flat fee includes HST. The provincial land transfer tax and optional title insurance are itemized separately, so you know exactly what's a legal fee and what's a third-party cost.
The 2021 Census recorded 2,052 total private dwellings, with 1,122 occupied by usual residents. We report the published StatCan figures as they stand, without guessing at why the gap exists.
In most cases, yes. We begin title review and closing preparation the moment we're retained so your scheduled date holds.
