The East Ferris-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
East Ferris property registers at the Nipissing Land Registry Office, LRO #36, with electronic registration completed through Ontario's ONLAND system. Our intake and signing process is built around that electronic filing from the start.
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.
Buyers in East Ferris pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only, since no municipal land transfer tax applies in the municipality. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, and we itemize the provincial LTT plus any disbursements separately in your closing cost estimate. The 2021 census recorded 4,946 residents in East Ferris, across 2,172 total private dwellings, of which 1,890 were occupied by usual residents. Title review, requisitions, mortgage instructions, and closing preparation are all part of that fixed fee.
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 an East Ferris property is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, covering discharge of your existing mortgage, responses to the buyer's requisitions, and release of net proceeds once closing funds clear. Land transfer tax is paid by the buyer, so it doesn't factor into a seller's costs. We stay in contact with your agent and the buyer's lawyer to keep closing on the agreed date.
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 handles new purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on East Ferris properties for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We review your lender's commitment letter, prepare and register the charge, and confirm conditions are satisfied before funds are released.
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.
Not under Ontario's rules. Our East Ferris files receive the same online document review, signing, and closing service by phone and courier as any other file.
No. Among Ontario municipalities, only Toronto adds a municipal land transfer tax on top of the provincial rate, so East Ferris buyers pay the provincial tax alone.
Our fee covers legal work only, HST included. The provincial land transfer tax is a government charge calculated on your purchase price, and title insurance is optional — both appear as their own line items, not part of our fee.
