Common Questions: View all FAQ

  • Q1. Do I really need a real estate lawyer in Toronto if I am selling my house privately?

    Yes. In Ontario, only a licensed lawyer can register a deed and transfer title through the land registry office. For private sales, our firm ensures that the purchase agreement is lawfully binding and that your interests are protected without a realtor.

  • Q2. What is a Status Certificate, and why must my firm review it?

    A Status Certificate provides essential information about the financial health of a condominium corporation. Reviewing it allows our office to check for pending legal issues, the adequacy of the reserve fund, and any potential fee increases before you finalize your purchase.

  • Q3. What are the land transfer tax implications for first-time buyers in Toronto?

    Toronto residents are subject to both provincial and municipal land transfer taxes. However, first-time homebuyers may be eligible for a refund of up to $8,475 in Toronto, significantly reducing the financial burden of closing.

  • Q4. How long does a title search take, and why is it important?

    A title search is the most critical part of a transaction. It typically takes a few days to complete and ensures the seller has the legal right to sell the property without outstanding liens, debts, or title defects.

  • Q5. Can I be released from a binding Agreement of Purchase and Sale?

    An Agreement of Purchase and Sale is a legally binding contract. While a release can sometimes be negotiated, it often involves significant legal fees and potential liability for losses suffered by the seller. It is always recommended to have our office review any offer before it is signed.
