Lanark County's eight municipalities — Mississippi Mills, Carleton Place, Beckwith, Perth, and the rest — all close on the same flat-fee schedule, priced before your file opens and handled entirely through upload, e-signature, and a phone or video call.
The eight municipalities that make up Lanark County range from Mississippi Mills and Carleton Place at the larger end down to Montague and the more rural townships, but the closing process doesn't shift with the population count. Every purchase runs $1,354.87, every sale $1,241.87, every refinance $1,241.87, flat and taxes included, whether the address is in Perth or a quieter township. Disbursements and land transfer tax are billed on top, at cost.

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 Lanark County is reached by two watershed authorities — which one applies depends on where the property drains.
