№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

The Newmarket-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.

Registration & logistics

Newmarket properties register through the York Region Land Registry Office (LRO #65), and registration itself is completed electronically through ONLAND (Teraview) — the system our entire online process is designed around.

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 Newmarket

What Newmarket buyers should know

As a town within York Region, Newmarket doesn't add a municipal land transfer tax on top of the provincial one — buyers here pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only, the same as almost everywhere else in the province. We work that provincial LTT estimate into your closing cost breakdown right from the start, along with any first-time buyer rebate you may qualify for. Newmarket's population sat at about 87,942 people as of the 2021 census, and no matter what type of home you're buying in town, our purchase service remains a flat $1,354.87, HST included, with disbursements and land transfer tax charged separately at cost.

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.

№ 03Selling in Newmarket

Clean title, clean payout

Selling a Newmarket home with us means the legal side is fully handled: we discharge your existing mortgage from title, respond to the buyer's requisitions as they come in, and get your proceeds released promptly once the deal closes. Land transfer tax is charged to the buyer, not the seller, so it never appears on your closing statement. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we keep you updated at each step.

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.

№ 04Mortgages in Newmarket

New mortgage

A new charge on a home you already own. We handle the lender’s requirements and register it — one flat fee.

№ 05Before You Ask

Newmarket closing questions

Trying to find a real estate lawyer near you in Newmarket?

There's no Newmarket office to visit, and none is needed. We handle document review, signing, and closing entirely online and by phone, so you get complete service without ever leaving home.

Does Newmarket or York Region charge a municipal land transfer tax?

No — neither Newmarket nor York Region levies a municipal land transfer tax. That charge exists only in Toronto among Ontario municipalities, so Newmarket buyers pay the provincial land transfer tax alone.

Is the flat fee the whole story, or are there add-ons?

Our flat fee — $1,354.87 for a purchase, $1,241.87 for a sale or mortgage, HST included — covers our legal work completely. The provincial land transfer tax and disbursements are separate, at-cost items, itemized clearly so nothing is hidden.

Which land registry office covers Newmarket?

Newmarket properties register through the York Region Land Registry Office, LRO #65, with electronic registration completed through ONLAND (Teraview) as part of our flat fee.

How long until my Newmarket closing is done?

Most Newmarket files close on the date already set out in the agreement of purchase and sale. We start title review, lender instructions, and document preparation as soon as you retain us, so that date stays on track.
