№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

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

Registration & logistics

The Durham Land Registry Office (LRO #40) handles registration for Brock Township, and that filing goes through electronically via ONLAND/Teraview — the same digital route your file already takes as part of our online process.

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 Brock

What Brock buyers should know

Buyers closing in Brock Township pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only; the extra municipal tax layer some buyers ask about is unique to Toronto and doesn't extend into Durham Region's rural municipalities. We calculate that provincial amount into your estimate up front and check your eligibility for a first-time buyer rebate. Brock is home to about 12,567 residents across roughly 5,297 private dwellings, and our flat-fee process treats a lakeside property the same as a village home. The purchase fee is $1,354.87, HST included, with the land transfer tax and disbursements billed on top, at their actual cost.

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 Brock

Clean title, clean payout

Selling a Brock Township property, we discharge any mortgage registered on title, respond to the buyer's requisitions, and get your proceeds to you quickly once the transaction closes. Since land transfer tax is paid by the buyer under Ontario law, it doesn't factor into a seller's costs at all. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we keep you updated at every stage so closing goes smoothly.

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.
