West Perth real estate files close with Treadstone Law entirely online — from our Mississauga office, not a location in the municipality — with a flat fee confirmed before you sign anything. HST is included in that price.
Our charges include HST. Disbursements and, on a purchase, Land Transfer Tax are extra and billed at cost — itemized upfront, in writing, never hidden.

The West Perth-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
West Perth is registered through the Perth Land Registry Office, LRO #44, using Ontario's electronic system for title transfers. Our firm's process already runs entirely online, so that electronic step lines up with how we work rather than requiring anything different.
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.
West Perth is a Perth County municipality with a population near 9,038, and Ontario's provincial land transfer tax is the only land transfer tax buyers there owe. Our purchase fee is a flat $1,354.87, HST included, covering title review, mortgage instruction preparation, and drafting the documents needed to close. Land transfer tax and disbursements sit outside that fee, billed at cost and itemized separately, so the number you're quoted for legal work stays fixed regardless of how the closing turns out. A Mitchell property and a rural West Perth property get exactly the same fee and process.
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.
Selling in West Perth, we discharge any mortgage against your title, respond to requisitions the buyer's lawyer raises, and pay out your net proceeds once the sale closes. Land transfer tax is charged to buyers, not sellers, so it doesn't factor into your bill. Our sale fee is a flat $1,241.87, HST included, and we send you updates as your file moves rather than staying silent between milestones.
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 against West Perth property go through our Mortgage service for a flat $1,241.87, HST included. We confirm your lender's conditions have been met and prepare the charge for registration so it's ready by your closing date. The fee holds steady regardless of which of the three mortgage types applies.
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.
