Kearney is a town of 974 people in the Parry Sound census division. We handle Kearney purchases, sales, and mortgage files for one flat fee, HST included, by phone, email, and e-signature — no office visit required.
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 Kearney-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Kearney properties register through the Parry Sound Land Registry Office (LRO #42); registration itself is completed electronically through ONLAND, so distance from the office has no bearing on how your file gets registered.
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.
Buying in Kearney means paying Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and nothing more — there's no municipal land transfer tax layered on top the way there is in Toronto. We build that provincial LTT estimate into your closing cost breakdown from the outset, along with any first-time buyer rebate you may be eligible for. StatCan counted 1,195 private dwellings in Kearney as of 2021, with 460 of them occupied by usual residents at census time; the gap between those two figures is simply reported, not explained. Our purchase fee is $1,354.87, flat, HST included, with disbursements and land transfer tax 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 a Kearney property follows the same legal steps as anywhere else in Ontario: we clear your existing mortgage from title, respond to the buyer's lawyer's requisitions, and calculate your net proceeds so funds are ready on closing day. Land transfer tax is the buyer's cost, not yours, so it doesn't factor into your file. Our flat sale fee is $1,241.87, HST included, with no separate charge for a small file versus a larger one.
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.
For new purchase mortgages, refinances, or private mortgage registrations on Kearney property, our Mortgage service runs at a flat $1,241.87, HST included, covering commitment review, charge registration, and confirming your lender's closing conditions are met. The fee doesn't change based on lender, mortgage amount, or property type.
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.
Not really necessary — our process is built around phone calls, emailed documents, and e-signature, so a Kearney file moves the same way a downtown Toronto file does. Proximity to an office isn't part of the equation.
No. Only Toronto layers a municipal land transfer tax onto the provincial one. Kearney buyers pay the provincial rate alone, calculated on your purchase price.
Legal work on your purchase, sale, or mortgage — document review, title search, closing correspondence, and registration. Land transfer tax and disbursements are real third-party or government costs, listed out separately so you know exactly what's what.
At the Parry Sound Land Registry Office, LRO #42, filed electronically through the province's ONLAND system as part of your flat fee — no extra charge for registration.
Yes. A file is a file — the legal steps for a Kearney closing are identical to a larger city's, and the flat fee doesn't scale with population.
