№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

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

Registration & logistics

Prince Edward properties fall under the Prince Edward Land Registry Office, LRO #47, and like the rest of the province, the paperwork is submitted through ONLAND (Teraview) rather than handed across a counter — a natural match for a online closing.

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 Prince Edward

What Prince Edward buyers should know

Buyers closing in Prince Edward pay only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax, because Toronto is the single Ontario municipality that charges a municipal land transfer tax. Purchases are priced at $1,354.87 flat, with HST folded in, for title review, contract review, and preparing your closing documents. The land transfer tax itself, along with disbursements, is charged separately at cost and itemized on your statement. Prince Edward's population was 25,704 as of the 2021 census, and the same flat fee applies to every purchase file we open there, whatever the property's location or price point.

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.

Learn before you close

№ 03Selling in Prince Edward

Clean title, clean payout

On the sale side, we take the mortgage off title, respond to whatever the other lawyer flags, and make sure your proceeds are released the moment the deal registers. Land transfer tax is charged to the buyer, so it plays no part in your sale costs. The flat rate for a sale file is $1,241.87, HST included, with disbursements billed at cost and shown on their own line. We keep the file moving and update you at each stage without requiring an office visit.

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 Prince Edward

One flat fee, every mortgage

$1,241.87 is what a mortgage registration costs on a Prince Edward property, HST included, and that price doesn't shift based on whether it's new, refinanced, or private. Handling your file means going through the lender's commitment letter line by line, satisfying its conditions, and getting the charge onto title. Disbursements are separate, billed at cost and itemized clearly.

New mortgage

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

Refinance

Switching lenders or borrowing more? We manage the payout and discharge of your old mortgage and register the new one.

Private mortgage

Borrowing from or lending to a private party. We paper it properly, register the charge, and protect your interests.

№ 05Before You Ask

Prince Edward closing questions

Hoping to find a real estate lawyer near you in Prince Edward?

You don't need a lawyer's office within Prince Edward itself — we handle the review, signing, and closing of your file online, by phone and email, for the same flat fee.

Is there a municipal land transfer tax in Prince Edward?

No. Prince Edward buyers owe the provincial land transfer tax and nothing extra — a municipal version is charged in Toronto and nowhere else in the province.

Will I face extra charges beyond the flat fee?

Yes — HST is part of the flat fee itself, not an add-on. What sits outside it are the government's land transfer tax, our disbursements, and title insurance if you opt in, each shown at cost.

Where do Prince Edward properties register?

They register at the Prince Edward Land Registry Office, LRO #47, with filing completed electronically through ONLAND.

Do waterfront or rural properties in Prince Edward cost more to close?

No. Our flat fee is the same across property types and locations within Prince Edward, so there's no separate pricing tier to worry about.
