№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

The Beckwith-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.

Registration & logistics

Beckwith is part of the Lanark Land Registry Office, LRO #27, and registration happens electronically under Ontario's system rather than in person. Given that our own process already runs online, that electronic step is simply consistent with how we already handle every file.

Property taxes at closing

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.

Closing entirely online

ID verification, document review, and signing happen online — no office visit needed. In-person signings remain available across the province if you prefer.

№ 02Buying in Beckwith

What Beckwith buyers should know

Beckwith is a Lanark County township with a population of about 9,021, and buyers there are on the hook for Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and nothing more — the township levies no municipal version of its own. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, and it pays for reviewing title, preparing mortgage instructions, and drafting the paperwork needed to close. Land transfer tax and disbursements stay outside that fee, charged at their actual cost and listed on their own, so the flat number is strictly what our legal work costs. We treat a Beckwith township file the same as any other file on our books — same fee, same steps.

Before you waive conditions

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.

Pre-construction & assignments

Buying pre-construction or an assignment carries its own tax and disclosure rules — ask us before you commit so nothing catches you at closing.

№ 03Selling in Beckwith

Clean title, clean payout

For a Beckwith sale, we discharge the mortgage registered against your title, respond to the requisitions the buyer's lawyer sends, and release your proceeds once the transaction closes. Land transfer tax is a buyer expense, so it never shows up on a seller's account. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we reach out at the points where there's something worth telling you.

No land transfer tax

Sellers don’t pay LTT. Your closing costs are the legal fee, discharge-related disbursements, and any mortgage payout penalties your lender sets.

Discharge handled

We obtain your mortgage discharge statement, answer the buyer’s requisitions, and prorate taxes and utilities on the statement of adjustments.

Same-day proceeds

Funds are wired the day of closing where possible. Selling a condo? We coordinate the status certificate the buyer’s lawyer will request.

№ 04Mortgages in Beckwith

One flat fee, every mortgage

New mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations against Beckwith property are all handled by our Mortgage service for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. Before closing, we confirm the lender's requirements are met and have the mortgage ready to register, so funds can move on the date set. The price is the same across all three situations.

New mortgage

A new charge on a home you already own. We handle the lender’s requirements and register it — one flat fee.

Refinance

Switching lenders or borrowing more? We manage the payout and discharge of your old mortgage and register the new one.

Private mortgage

Borrowing from or lending to a private party. We paper it properly, register the charge, and protect your interests.
