Land Transfer Calculator
A land transfer tax is a provincial or municipal tax levied when someone purchases a property. The tax is normally calculated as a percentage of the property value and can be quite significant, especially on higher-priced properties. Land transfer taxes are often a forgotten cost of purchasing a property. But, unless you qualify for a full rebate, there is virtually no way to avoid it since the tax must be paid upfront.
