The Augusta-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Augusta is a township in the Leeds and Grenville census division. There's no dedicated land registry office listed for this area — registration is completed electronically through ONLAND (Teraview), the province's system for recording title.
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.
Augusta buyers owe Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and nothing further at the municipal level — Toronto is the only Ontario municipality that adds its own municipal land transfer tax. Our flat purchase fee is $1,354.87, HST included; the land transfer tax and disbursements are charged separately, at cost, and shown in full on your closing statement so nothing is a surprise on signing day. The 2021 Census recorded 3,046 total private dwellings in Augusta, of which 2,952 were occupied by usual residents. Whatever kind of home you're buying here, the fee and the tax structure stay the same.
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 property in Augusta involves the same core steps everywhere in Ontario: we review title, discharge the existing mortgage, answer the buyer's requisitions, and send your proceeds once closing funds land. Land transfer tax is the buyer's responsibility, not the seller's, so it has no impact on your net. Our flat selling fee is $1,241.87, HST included, with disbursements itemized separately.
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.
For new purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Augusta property, our flat fee is $1,241.87, HST included. We review your lender's commitment letter, prepare the charge for registration, and confirm the lender's conditions are satisfied so your funds move on schedule. New mortgage, refinance, or private loan, the price and process stay the same.
A new charge on a home you already own. We handle the lender’s requirements and register it — one flat fee.
