№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

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

Registration & logistics

Properties in East Zorra-Tavistock register at the Oxford Land Registry Office, LRO #41, with the filing itself submitted electronically rather than in person. Since we already handle closings through digital documents, this electronic step doesn't change the pace of your 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 East Zorra-Tavistock

What East Zorra-Tavistock buyers should know

East Zorra-Tavistock, a township in Oxford County, is subject to Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and no separate municipal charge. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, covering title search, requisitions, and closing documents. The 2021 census recorded 7,841 residents in the township across 3,055 total private dwellings, with 2,976 occupied by usual residents. Your provincial LTT is calculated, along with rebate eligibility, as part of the upfront quote we send before your file opens.

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.

Learn before you close

№ 03Selling in East Zorra-Tavistock

Clean title, clean payout

Selling in East Zorra-Tavistock follows Ontario's typical closing steps: your current mortgage is discharged from title, we respond to requisitions from the buyer's lawyer, and your net proceeds are released once the deal funds. The sale fee is flat at $1,241.87, HST included, with disbursements billed at cost. Because land transfer tax is a buyer's cost, it doesn't reduce your proceeds as the seller.

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.
