№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

The Leeds and the Thousand Islands-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.

Registration & logistics

Registration on Leeds and the Thousand Islands property happens electronically through Ontario's ONLAND (Teraview) system rather than at a physical counter. That fits naturally with how we already run your file — document review, signing, and closing coordination all handled online.

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 Leeds and the Thousand Islands

What Leeds and the Thousand Islands buyers should know

Buyers closing in Leeds and the Thousand Islands owe Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only; the township adds no municipal tax of its own. We price a purchase file at $1,354.87 flat, HST included, with the land transfer tax and disbursements kept separate and billed at cost. Leeds and the Thousand Islands is a township within the County of Leeds and Grenville, with a population around 9,804 people. Township or otherwise, our review of title and preparation of your closing documents doesn't change.

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.

Learn before you close

№ 03Selling in Leeds and the Thousand Islands

Clean title, clean payout

Selling property in Leeds and the Thousand Islands, we discharge your existing mortgage from title, answer the buyer's requisitions, and get your net proceeds released once the sale registers. Land transfer tax is a cost the buyer carries, not you as the seller. Our price for selling is $1,241.87 flat, HST included, whatever the property's sale price turns out to be.

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.
