Temagami is a municipality of 862 residents in the Nipissing census division. The legal work behind a closing is the same as anywhere in Ontario — purchase, sale, or mortgage, one flat fee, HST included, run by phone, email, and e-signature.
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.
Every figure is from Statistics Canada’s 2021 Census of Population — real published data, current until the 2026 Census releases (2027).

The Temagami-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Temagami properties register through the Nipissing Land Registry Office (LRO #36); filing is completed electronically through ONLAND, keeping registration consistent whether the property is year-round or seasonal.
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.
Buyers in Temagami pay only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax, since a municipal land transfer tax is charged nowhere in the province except Toronto. We fold your provincial LTT estimate into your closing cost breakdown from the start, and check whether a first-time buyer rebate applies. StatCan recorded 928 private dwellings in Temagami as of 2021, with 432 occupied by usual residents — a wide gap between the two counts that we report as given, without speculating on the cause. Purchases are handled for $1,354.87 flat, HST included, with land transfer tax and disbursements itemized separately at cost.
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.
A Temagami sale follows Ontario's standard closing sequence: discharging any existing mortgage, responding to the buyer's requisitions on title, and preparing the statement of adjustments so your net proceeds are ready to release on closing. Land transfer tax isn't a seller's cost. Our sale fee is $1,241.87 flat, HST included, regardless of the property's use or value.
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 Temagami property run through our Mortgage service for a flat $1,241.87, HST included — commitment letter review, charge registration, and confirming the lender's conditions before closing, with no exceptions carved out for the fee.
A new charge on a home you already own. We handle the lender’s requirements and register it — one flat fee.
