Tweed buyers, sellers, and homeowners refinancing a mortgage all work with Treadstone Law the same way: online, with one flat and HST-included legal fee. We itemize government charges separately so your closing cost summary stays easy to follow.
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 Tweed-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
Tweed properties register in the Hastings Land Registry Office, LRO #21. The registration itself is submitted electronically, which is how our fully online process is able to close Tweed files without an in-person appointment.
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 closing in Tweed pay only the provincial land transfer tax, since no Ontario municipality other than Toronto charges a municipal transfer tax of its own. We work your provincial LTT estimate into your file before closing and note any rebate you may be able to claim. Statistics Canada's 2021 census put Tweed's population at about 6,067, with roughly 3,042 total private dwellings, of which about 2,591 were occupied by usual residents. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, with land transfer tax and disbursements billed 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 Tweed sale follows the standard steps on our end: discharging your existing mortgage from title, responding to the buyer's requisitions, and getting your statement of adjustments ready so proceeds are available at closing. Land transfer tax is paid by buyers, not sellers, so it isn't part of your file. The flat sale fee is $1,241.87, HST included, with disbursements itemized on your invoice.
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 Tweed properties all run through our Mortgage service for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We review your lender's commitment letter, get the charge ready for registration, and confirm the conditions attached to your mortgage are met before funds move.
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.
Yes, we act for Tweed buyers and sellers without a local office. Reviewing documents, signing, and moving funds are all done online, so location isn't a barrier to using our firm.
No. Tweed buyers pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax only; a municipal add-on tax exists solely in Toronto.
The flat fee is our full legal charge, HST included. Government and third-party items, land transfer tax, optional title insurance, are billed and itemized separately, outside that number.
