Property Transfer Tax


You pay Property Transfer Tax when you purchase or acquire an interest in a property. The tax must be paid when you register changes to a certificate of title with the Land Title Office. Property Transfer Tax is different from property tax. You pay property tax on an annual basis for services you receive from your local government, even if no money through a contract of purchase of sale changes hands.


There is Relief!
