Whether you're buying, selling, or refinancing in Shelburne, Treadstone Law manages the file entirely online, out of our Mississauga office rather than a branch nearby. Our flat fee, HST included, is set before your file starts.
Our charges include HST. Disbursements and, on a purchase, Land Transfer Tax are extra and billed at cost — itemized upfront, in writing, never hidden.

The Shelburne-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Shelburne properties register at the Dufferin Land Registry Office, LRO #7, through Ontario's electronic title system. That fits naturally with how our firm already operates, since intake, signing, and closing are all handled online rather than through an in-person visit.
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.
Shelburne is a Dufferin County town with roughly 8,994 residents, and buyers there pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax with no municipal charge added on top. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, covering the title review, mortgage instruction work, and closing documents your file needs. Land transfer tax and disbursements are billed separately, at cost, and appear as their own items on your statement, keeping the quoted flat fee limited strictly to our legal work. A small-town Shelburne file gets no different treatment, in fee or process, than a larger closing elsewhere.
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 in Shelburne, we handle discharging your existing mortgage from title, responding to the buyer's requisitions, and releasing your proceeds once closing funds arrive. Since land transfer tax is a cost that falls on buyers, it has no effect on a seller's bill. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we keep in touch as your file advances rather than leaving gaps in communication.
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.
Shelburne mortgage files — new purchases, refinances, and private mortgage registrations alike — go through our Mortgage service for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We verify your lender's conditions have been satisfied and prepare the mortgage for registration ahead of closing, working to keep funds on schedule. The fee is unchanged across all three 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.
Our office is in Mississauga, not Shelburne, but our process was built for exactly this — clients anywhere in Ontario working with us by phone, email, and e-signature.
No — the provincial land transfer tax rate is set by Ontario, not by the municipality, so Shelburne buyers pay the same provincial tax as buyers elsewhere, with no municipal add-on.
Only land transfer tax and disbursements, both billed at their actual cost and shown separately; the flat fee itself, HST included, doesn't change.
