The Minto-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Minto properties register through the Wellington South Land Registry Office, LRO #61, using Ontario's electronic system rather than a counter visit. Since our process already runs online, that fits without changing how you interact with us.
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.
Minto is a Wellington County town of about 9,094 residents, and purchasing property there means paying Ontario's provincial land transfer tax with no municipal tax stacked on top. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, and it pays for title review, mortgage instructions, and preparing your closing documents. Land transfer tax itself, along with disbursements, is charged separately at cost and appears as its own line item, so the quoted flat fee is what covers our legal work specifically. Whether the property is in Harriston, Palmerston, or Clifford, the fee and process are the same.
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.
On a Minto sale, we take care of discharging your mortgage from title, responding to the buyer's requisitions, and releasing your net proceeds once closing funds come in. Land transfer tax is the buyer's responsibility, so it plays no part in a seller's invoice. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we keep you informed at each meaningful step rather than only at the end.
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.
Our Mortgage service takes on new purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations against Minto property for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We check that lender conditions have been satisfied and get the charge prepared for registration ahead of your closing date. The fee is identical whichever of those three mortgage situations applies to you.
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.
We're located in Mississauga, not Minto, but our process is designed for online clients — documents, signing, and closing all happen without an office visit.
It doesn't. Minto buyers pay only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax, with nothing extra charged by the town.
Land transfer tax and disbursements aren't part of the flat fee — they're billed at their actual cost and itemized on their own, separate from the HST-included flat fee for our work.
