Serving North Perth with flat-fee real estate law, run entirely online from your first call to the final signature. Buying, selling, or refinancing in this Perth County municipality costs one clear, HST-included price, with no branch office to track down.
Our charges include HST. Disbursements and, on a purchase, Land Transfer Tax are extra and billed at cost — itemized upfront, in writing, never hidden.
Prices are “our charges” and include HST. Disbursements and Land Transfer Tax are extra, at cost, estimated in writing before you commit.
Every figure is from Statistics Canada’s 2021 Census of Population — real published data, current until the 2026 Census releases (2027).

The North Perth-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
There's no counter to visit for a North Perth closing — registration happens electronically, through Ontario's ONLAND (Teraview) system, at the Perth Land Registry Office (LRO #44). We built our practice around that reality, so online filing was already how we planned to work.
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.
Buyers in North Perth pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and nothing beyond it — Toronto is the only municipality in the province that layers on a municipal version. We fold that provincial figure, plus any rebate you're entitled to, into your closing cost estimate before you sign. As of the 2021 census, North Perth's population was about 15,538, spread across 6,171 total private dwellings, 5,959 of them occupied. Whatever kind of home you're closing on, the flat fee and process here don't shift.
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.
Selling means paying off what's left on your mortgage, dealing with the buyer lawyer's requisitions, and getting your net proceeds out the door once registration goes through — all of which we manage on your North Perth file. Since land transfer tax falls to the buyer, it plays no part in your numbers. Expect a plain-language closing statement, not a pile of legalese.
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.
Getting a new purchase mortgage registered, refinancing, or putting a private mortgage on a North Perth property — all three run through our Mortgage service at the same flat, HST-included price. We read the lender's commitment letter closely, prepare the charge, register it, and clear every lender condition so your funds arrive on schedule.
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.
A local storefront isn't part of how we work — from your first call through to registration, your North Perth file moves by phone, email, and e-signature, wherever you happen to be.
No. North Perth applies only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax — the added municipal version exists solely in Toronto.
Our flat fee includes HST and covers everything we do as your lawyer. Costs that come from government or a third party — the provincial land transfer tax, optional title insurance — are billed separately and spelled out clearly.
North Perth properties fall under the Perth Land Registry Office, LRO #44. The actual registration is submitted electronically through ONLAND (Teraview), and we take care of that filing at no extra charge.
