Closings across every municipality

Strathroy-Caradoc, Middlesex Centre, and Thames Centre are the three larger municipalities inside Middlesex County, sitting alongside smaller ones like North Middlesex, Southwest Middlesex, Lucan Biddulph, Adelaide Metcalfe, and Newbury — eight in total. That mix of sizable and smaller municipalities doesn't change how a file is priced: purchases are $1,354.87, sales $1,241.87, refinances $1,241.87, each flat and taxes included, disbursements and land transfer tax billed on top at cost.

Middlesex County questions

Do you work with a real estate lawyer near me in Middlesex County?

Files across all eight Middlesex County municipalities go through the same document-upload, e-signature, and call-based process, so it doesn't matter which township or municipality the property is in.

Is Strathroy-Caradoc more expensive to close in than a smaller Middlesex municipality?

No. The flat fee applies equally whether the file is in the larger municipalities or the smaller ones like Newbury or Adelaide Metcalfe.

What's included in the Middlesex County flat fee?

Purchases run $1,354.87 and sales or refinances run $1,241.87, both flat with taxes included. Disbursements and land transfer tax are extra, at cost, and shown separately on your statement of adjustments.

Is there a municipal land transfer tax anywhere in Middlesex County?

No — every municipality in Middlesex County is subject to the provincial land transfer tax only, unlike Toronto's added municipal tax.

Conservation

Conservation authorities in Middlesex County

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 Middlesex County is reached by 5 watershed authorities — which one applies depends on where the property drains.
