№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

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

Registration & logistics

Registrations for Greater Sudbury properties run through the Sudbury Land Registry Office (LRO #53), completed electronically through ONLAND (Teraview) rather than in person — a setup that matches how our online process is designed to work everywhere in the province.

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 Greater Sudbury

What Greater Sudbury buyers should know

Greater Sudbury is a City with a 2021 census population of about 166,004, forming its own single-tier census division rather than sitting inside a separate county. Buyers here pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only, since Toronto remains the only municipality with an added municipal land transfer tax. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, across all property types, and your provincial LTT estimate is built into your closing cost breakdown so nothing is a surprise. Any applicable first-time buyer rebate is flagged as part of that review. The file — title search, mortgage instructions, closing documents — runs online, so distance doesn't slow things down.

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 Greater Sudbury

Clean title, clean payout

Selling a Greater Sudbury property is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and covers discharging your existing mortgage, responding to the buyer's requisitions, and releasing your proceeds once the deal closes. Since land transfer tax is a cost the buyer carries, it never shows up on a seller's file. We provide status updates throughout, so from the day we're retained to the day funds are released, you know exactly where things stand.

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.

№ 04Mortgages in Greater Sudbury

One flat fee, every mortgage

New mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Greater Sudbury properties are handled for the same flat $1,241.87, HST included, no matter which of the three applies to you. We go through your lender's commitment letter, register the charge, and confirm the conditions are met so your funds are ready when they're needed. That single fee doesn't change based on mortgage type.

New mortgage

A new charge on a home you already own. We handle the lender’s requirements and register it — one flat fee.

Refinance

Switching lenders or borrowing more? We manage the payout and discharge of your old mortgage and register the new one.

Private mortgage

Borrowing from or lending to a private party. We paper it properly, register the charge, and protect your interests.

That's our complete flat legal fee for a Greater Sudbury purchase, HST included. The provincial land transfer tax and any disbursements are separate, itemized charges billed at cost.

Which land registry office handles Greater Sudbury properties?

Greater Sudbury properties register through the Sudbury Land Registry Office, LRO #53, with the filing itself completed electronically through ONLAND (Teraview).

Can a Greater Sudbury closing still happen on the date already scheduled?

In most cases, yes. As soon as you retain us we begin title review, mortgage instructions, and document preparation to keep the agreed closing date on track.
