The Springwater-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Springwater properties are registered at the Simcoe Land Registry Office (LRO #51) through ONLAND's electronic filing system, which lines up directly with the paperless way we already handle the rest of your file.
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.
Buying in the Township of Springwater means paying Ontario's provincial land transfer tax and nothing further — Springwater doesn't add a municipal land transfer tax on top, unlike Toronto. We build that provincial figure into your closing cost estimate up front and check whether any rebate applies to your purchase. Springwater's population came in at 21,701 as of the 2021 census, across 7,845 total private dwellings with 7,516 occupied. Bungalow, two-storey, or rural lot, the fee structure and the single tax layer stay consistent.
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.
Sellers in the Township of Springwater get the standard Ontario closing handled for them: any existing mortgage is discharged from title, the buyer's requisitions get answered promptly, and your net proceeds are calculated and sent once funds land. Because land transfer tax is charged to buyers rather than sellers, it plays no part in what you take home. We check in with you as the file moves rather than leaving you guessing.
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 on Springwater properties are all covered by our Mortgage service for the same flat, HST-included price. We work through the lender's commitment letter, register the charge, and verify the lender's conditions are cleared so your funds are ready when they're needed. It's one process regardless of which of the three applies to you.
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.
There's no local office to visit — Springwater files go through document review, signing, and closing entirely online and over the phone, so you're covered without a trip anywhere.
No. Springwater buyers pay only the provincial land transfer tax — the extra municipal land transfer tax exists solely in Toronto.
HST is already inside the flat fee. The province's land transfer tax — and title insurance, if you take it — appear on their own lines so you always know what's what.
The Simcoe Land Registry Office, LRO #51, using electronic registration through ONLAND (Teraview), and the registration step is ours to complete — included in the flat fee, nothing added.
Yes — we work toward the date already in your agreement of purchase and sale and begin title review and lender instructions as soon as you're retained.
