№ 01.3Local Logistics

Title, registration & property taxes

The Wellington North-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.

Registration & logistics

The Wellington South Land Registry Office (LRO #61) covers Wellington North for registration, with filing done electronically via ONLAND/Teraview — the same system that supports the online process we already use to run your file.

Property taxes at closing

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.

Closing entirely online

ID verification, document review, and signing happen online — no office visit needed. In-person signings remain available across the province if you prefer.

№ 02Buying in Wellington North

What Wellington North buyers should know

Buyers in Wellington North pay only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax, because the additional municipal tax that applies elsewhere in Ontario is a Toronto-specific rule that doesn't reach Wellington County. We include that provincial cost in your upfront estimate and check for a first-time buyer rebate along the way. Wellington North has close to 12,431 residents across about 4,987 private dwellings, and our flat-fee process applies the same whether the property is a farm, a small-town home, or a newer build. The purchase fee is $1,354.87, HST included, with the land transfer tax and disbursements shown separately, both billed at cost.

Before you waive conditions

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.

Pre-construction & assignments

Buying pre-construction or an assignment carries its own tax and disclosure rules — ask us before you commit so nothing catches you at closing.

Learn before you close

№ 03Selling in Wellington North

Clean title, clean payout

Selling in Wellington North, we discharge your mortgage from title, handle requisitions raised by the buyer's lawyer, and release your net proceeds promptly once the sale closes. Because land transfer tax is a buyer's expense under Ontario law, it has no bearing on a seller's file. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we keep you updated throughout so nothing about closing surprises you.

No land transfer tax

Sellers don’t pay LTT. Your closing costs are the legal fee, discharge-related disbursements, and any mortgage payout penalties your lender sets.

Discharge handled

We obtain your mortgage discharge statement, answer the buyer’s requisitions, and prorate taxes and utilities on the statement of adjustments.

Same-day proceeds

Funds are wired the day of closing where possible. Selling a condo? We coordinate the status certificate the buyer’s lawyer will request.
