Gauthier is one of the smaller townships in the Timiskaming District, with 151 residents as of the 2021 Census, and it closes real estate the same way we handle every Ontario file: one price, HST included, 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.
Prices are “our charges” and include HST. Disbursements and Land Transfer Tax are extra, at cost, estimated in writing before you commit.
Every figure is from Statistics Canada’s 2021 Census of Population — real published data, current until the 2026 Census releases (2027).

The Gauthier-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Gauthier comes under the Timiskaming Land Registry Office, LRO #54, the same registry that covers several neighbouring townships in the district, with electronic filing throughout.
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 Gauthier purchase is subject to Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only — there's no municipal tax on top. StatCan counted 151 residents in Gauthier for 2021, spread across 73 private dwellings, 68 of them occupied by usual residents. That's among the smallest markets in this batch, and our purchase fee doesn't scale up or down for it: $1,354.87 flat, HST included, with land transfer tax and disbursements itemized separately at cost.
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 in Gauthier means we discharge any existing mortgage, respond to the buyer's requisitions, and release your net proceeds on closing, for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. Land transfer tax is the buyer's responsibility, so it never appears on a Gauthier seller's statement from us, whatever the sale price.
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.
New purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Gauthier properties are covered by our Mortgage service for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We confirm the lender's commitment conditions, prepare the charge, and register it ahead of your closing date, whichever of the three it is.
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're based out of Mississauga, so an in-person meeting in Gauthier isn't part of the process; instead, review and signing happen by phone, email, and e-signature.
No. Gauthier buyers pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and nothing beyond that.
Land transfer tax, registration disbursements, and optional title insurance are itemized separately, at cost, apart from our flat legal fee.
The Timiskaming Land Registry Office, LRO #54; registration is filed electronically as part of your closing.
The legal steps don't shrink with population — a Gauthier closing still needs a title search, closing documents, and registration, handled with the same care as a file anywhere else.
