Red Lake real estate closings happen from wherever you are — our lawyers manage review, signing, and registration online for purchases, sales, and refinances alike, all under a single flat fee with HST included.
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.

The Red Lake-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Red Lake registrations are handled by the Kenora Land Registry Office, LRO #23, and electronic filing is how every one of our closings there gets registered.
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.
Red Lake is a single-tier municipality within the Kenora census division, and its buyers pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only, since Toronto is the sole municipality in the province with a municipal land transfer tax of its own. Our purchase service is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, for title review, closing document preparation, and registration, with the provincial land transfer tax and disbursements calculated and itemized separately from that fee. StatCan's 2021 census recorded a population of 4,094 and 1,899 total private dwellings, with 1,703 occupied by usual residents. The flat fee is the same whether the property is in the town centre or elsewhere in the municipality.
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.
For sellers, we discharge any mortgage registered against the Red Lake property, respond to the buyer's lawyer's requisitions, and release your net proceeds once funds are confirmed on closing. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, unrelated to sale price. Land transfer tax is a buyer's expense, not the seller's, so it won't appear on your file, and we keep you updated as closing progresses.
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.
New purchase mortgages, refinances, and private mortgage registrations against Red Lake property are all handled by our Mortgage service, priced flat at $1,241.87, HST included. We review the lender's commitment letter, register the mortgage, and confirm all closing conditions are satisfied before funds are released. The fee is identical across mortgage types.
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.
Yes. Every step on a Red Lake file — review, signing, closing — is handled by phone and secure document exchange, so there's no need to meet anyone in person.
No. That additional tax is a Toronto feature; Red Lake buyers are on the hook for the provincial land transfer tax alone.
Yes, our flat fee is inclusive of HST and covers legal work only. The provincial land transfer tax, disbursements, and optional title insurance are billed separately, each shown as its own itemized line.
