Hastings County is made up of fourteen municipalities north of the Bay of Quinte, from Tweed and Stirling-Rawdon down to small townships like Limerick and Wollaston. Treadstone Law closes a purchase, sale, or refinance the same flat way no matter which of the fourteen it's in.
Fourteen municipalities sit inside Hastings County, more than almost any other Ontario county, ranging from Tweed and Stirling-Rawdon at the larger end down to Limerick, Tudor and Cashel, and Wollaston, each under a thousand residents. Treadstone Law's flat fees stay fixed across all fourteen: $1,354.87 for a purchase, $1,241.87 for a sale, $1,241.87 for a refinance, taxes included, land transfer tax and disbursements added at cost. A file in Centre Hastings and one in a small township like Faraday go through the same steps.

Development in a regulated area, and interference with a wetland or watercourse, require a permit under section 28.1 of the Conservation Authorities Act, issued by the conservation authority rather than the municipality under O. Reg. 41/24. Watersheds do not follow municipal lines, and Hastings County is reached by 3 watershed authorities — which one applies depends on where the property drains.
