Powassan real estate deals close through Treadstone Law's online process — there's no branch office nearby, and the whole file doesn't require one. Purchases, sales, and refinances are each quoted a flat fee, HST included, before you retain us.
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 Powassan-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Title to Powassan real estate is held at the Parry Sound Land Registry Office (LRO #42); registration itself happens electronically, not at a physical counter, which suits a process we already run online.
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 closing on a Powassan property pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only; Powassan doesn't layer on a municipal land transfer tax the way Toronto does. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, and land transfer tax plus other disbursements are itemized at cost, separate from that legal fee. As of the 2021 census, Powassan had a population of 3,346 across 1,381 total private dwellings, with 1,317 occupied by usual residents. The same flat-fee structure applies no matter what kind of home you're closing on.
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.
A Powassan sale runs through the standard steps: discharging your existing mortgage, responding to the buyer's requisitions, and releasing your net proceeds promptly after closing. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included. Land transfer tax is the buyer's obligation, so it doesn't touch a seller's closing costs.
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.
We handle new mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Powassan property for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. That covers reviewing your commitment letter, preparing and registering the charge, and confirming the lender's conditions are met. Whether it's a new purchase mortgage or a refinance, the fee is agreed before we start any work.
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.
