White River is a Township of 557 people in the Algoma District, and its real estate files run through the same flat-fee, fully online process as any Ontario closing — the price is set upfront, with HST already included in it.
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 White River-specific mechanics we handle on every file — so nothing surprises you at closing.
White River registers through the Algoma Land Registry Office (LRO #1); registrations are filed electronically, and the rest of your file — review, signing, closing — runs by phone, email, and e-signature.
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.
Buying in White River, you'll pay Ontario's provincial land transfer tax; there's no municipal land transfer tax on top, since that charge is currently unique to Toronto. Our flat purchase fee is $1,354.87, HST included, with land transfer tax and disbursements itemized separately at cost. White River had 333 private dwellings in the 2021 census, with 270 occupied by usual residents. A smaller township doesn't mean a smaller file — title search, requisitions, mortgage instructions, and closing all proceed as they would anywhere, for the fee confirmed at the outset.
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 a White River property, we discharge your existing mortgage, respond to the buyer's requisitions on title, and release your net proceeds once closing funds and registration are confirmed. The flat selling fee is $1,241.87, HST included; disbursements are billed separately at cost. Land transfer tax is a buyer's cost, so it doesn't factor into your closing statement.
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 White River property go through our Mortgage service for a single flat fee of $1,241.87, HST included. We review the lender's commitment letter, register the charge on title, and confirm conditions are satisfied before 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.
