The South Stormont-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
South Stormont doesn't have its own land registry office — filing happens electronically through the province's ONLAND (Teraview) system, the same digital route your file already travels through when you work with us online, so there's no separate in-person step to arrange.
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.
Closings in South Stormont carry only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax; the extra municipal tax some buyers hear about is a Toronto-specific rule that doesn't extend into Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry. We calculate that provincial figure for you up front and flag any first-time buyer rebate you could claim. The township is home to roughly 13,570 people across about 5,583 private dwellings, and our process treats a waterfront property the same as a modest in-town bungalow — same review, same flat fee. That fee is $1,354.87 for a purchase, HST included, with only disbursements and the land transfer tax added on top, both shown to you at cost before closing.
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 South Stormont means we discharge any existing mortgage registered against your title, respond to requisitions raised by the buyer's lawyer, and release your net proceeds without delay once funds arrive. The land transfer tax is a buyer expense under Ontario law, so it never factors into a seller's file. Our flat sale fee is $1,241.87, HST included, and we keep you informed at every stage so closing day is routine.
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 mortgages registered against South Stormont properties are all handled under the same flat $1,241.87 fee, HST included. We read through your lender's commitment letter, prepare and register the charge, and make sure every condition your lender set is cleared before money moves. Same fee, same process, regardless of which type of mortgage work you need.
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.
You don't have to find a firm with a storefront in the township. We handle document review, signing arrangements, and closing communication by phone and email, so a South Stormont file gets the same attention as any other.
No additional municipal land transfer tax applies here — that's a rule unique to Toronto within Ontario. South Stormont buyers pay the provincial rate only.
Our flat fee already has HST built in. Costs like the provincial land transfer tax and an optional item such as title insurance are broken out as separate, clearly labelled charges.
Your file registers electronically through ONLAND, Ontario's province-wide system — there's no physical office to visit and no extra step for you to manage.
We begin title work and prepare closing documents as soon as you retain us, staying in contact with your lender and the other side to keep your agreed closing date on track.
