Fauquier-Strickland, a township in the Cochrane census division, had a population of 467 at the 2021 census. Real estate closings here run on the exact same flat-fee, HST-included model we use across Ontario, with everything handled by phone, email, and e-signature.
Our charges include HST. Disbursements and, on a purchase, Land Transfer Tax are extra and billed at cost — itemized upfront, in writing, never hidden.

The Fauquier-Strickland-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Fauquier-Strickland properties are registered under the Cochrane Land Registry Office, LRO #6, with filing completed electronically through ONLAND, the same platform used province-wide regardless of a municipality's size or distance from a city centre.
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.
A Fauquier-Strickland purchase carries Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and no local add-on — municipal land transfer tax is a rule that applies in one Ontario city only, and this township is nowhere near it. Statistics Canada recorded 278 private dwellings here in 2021, of which 227 were occupied by usual residents, leaving roughly a fifth of the housing stock outside that count. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, covering the full legal file — title search, document preparation, coordination with your lender — while land transfer tax and disbursements are billed separately, itemized at the actual amount charged.
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.
On a Fauquier-Strickland sale, we discharge the existing mortgage, respond to the buyer's requisitions, and release your proceeds once the closing funds clear — for a flat $1,241.87, HST included, no matter the sale price. Land transfer tax is a buyer's obligation only, so it never shows up on a seller's statement with us. We keep you posted at each stage rather than leaving the file to guesswork.
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 against Fauquier-Strickland properties, all for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We match the lender's commitment letter against the real closing numbers, register the charge, and confirm conditions are met so funds move on schedule.
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.
We take on Fauquier-Strickland purchases, sales, and refinances regularly, with the whole file handled through phone, email, and e-signature rather than an office visit.
No. Municipal land transfer tax is unique to Toronto. In Fauquier-Strickland you'd owe the provincial land transfer tax only.
The flat fee we quote is HST-included legal work, full stop. Land transfer tax, title insurance, and other third-party costs appear as their own separate, at-cost line items on your statement.
The Cochrane Land Registry Office, LRO #6. Registration is done electronically through ONLAND, included in our flat fee.
Yes. The township's 2021 population was 467, and while that keeps transaction volume low, our flat-fee process doesn't change based on how many files come from a given area.
