Serving Trent Hills, we run flat-fee real estate closings entirely online, from your first phone call to your final e-signature. One upfront, HST-included price applies whether you're buying, selling, or refinancing.
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 Trent Hills-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
The Northumberland Land Registry Office (LRO #39) covers Trent Hills registrations, filed electronically through Ontario's ONLAND (Teraview) system. Since our firm was never built around a physical office, that electronic step is simply how we already do business.
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.
In Trent Hills, buyers pay the provincial land transfer tax and no local equivalent — Toronto is the outlier province-wide with its municipal tax. That provincial number, and any applicable rebate, appears in your closing cost estimate ahead of time. The 2021 census counted 13,861 residents in Trent Hills, across 7,057 total private dwellings, 5,903 of which were occupied. On the water or well inland, the flat fee doesn't move.
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.
On a Trent Hills sale, your mortgage gets discharged from title, buyer requisitions get responded to, and your net proceeds go out once registration is confirmed — that's our role in the file. Because land transfer tax is charged to buyers alone, it never factors into your seller costs. A plain statement of adjustments accompanies your closing.
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 financing, refinances, and private mortgage registrations on Trent Hills property all fall under one flat, HST-included Mortgage fee, whatever the loan amount. We work through the lender's commitment letter, prepare the charge for registration, and confirm each condition your lender sets before your funds are released.
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.
We don't run a Trent Hills branch office, and you won't miss it — your file gets a lawyer's full attention by phone and email, start to close.
No. Trent Hills buyers pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only; the added municipal tax is a Toronto-specific feature.
