The Ajax-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Ajax properties register through the Durham Land Registry Office (LRO #40), with the filing completed electronically through ONLAND (Teraview) — a process that aligns directly with how our online service is built to work.
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.
Ajax is a Town in Durham Region with a 2021 census population of about 126,666, and its buyers pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only, since Toronto is still the sole Ontario municipality that charges a municipal land transfer tax on top. We charge a flat $1,354.87 for a purchase, HST included, regardless of property type, and your provincial LTT estimate is included in your closing cost breakdown from day one. Where a first-time buyer rebate applies to your purchase, we flag it as part of the same review. Title search, mortgage instructions, and signing are all done online, which keeps an Ajax closing running at the same pace as any file across Durham Region.
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.
Selling in Ajax costs a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and covers discharging your existing mortgage from title, responding to the buyer's requisitions, and releasing your proceeds promptly once closing funds arrive. Land transfer tax is paid by the buyer, so it has no bearing on a seller's file. We keep Ajax and Durham Region sellers informed at each stage so closing day proceeds without any last-minute surprises.
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.
New purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Ajax properties all carry the same flat $1,241.87 fee, HST included. We review your lender's commitment letter, register the charge on title, and confirm the conditions are satisfied so funds are ready to move on time. One fee, no matter which of the three fits your file.
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. We serve Ajax and the rest of Durham Region through an online process, with document review, signing, and closing all handled by phone and email instead of an office visit.
No. As a Town in Durham Region, Ajax applies only the provincial land transfer tax — Toronto remains the only Ontario municipality with a municipal land transfer tax.
