What real estate lawyers in Timmins help with

A real estate lawyer reviews the agreement of purchase and sale, searches title, prepares closing documents and handles the transfer of funds on closing day. They also act on sales, refinancing, new-build and pre-construction purchases, and condo or commercial property matters.

Real Estate law in Ontario: what to know

Buying property in Ontario involves a provincial land transfer tax (and, in Toronto, a separate municipal land transfer tax). A lawyer can estimate the closing costs you should budget for.

How to choose a real estate lawyer in Timmins

  1. Confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario.
  2. Ask how much of their practice is real estate, and how recent their experience is with cases like yours.
  3. Compare the Google rating together with the number of reviews, not the rating alone.
  4. Read recent reviews for comments on communication and responsiveness.
  5. Ask for the fee structure in writing before you sign, including what is billed separately.
  6. Meet with more than one firm if the matter is large, and trust the one that explains your options clearly.

What to bring

How the process usually works

  4. You sign and send closing funds ahead of the closing date.

Costs and fees

Real estate work is usually quoted as a flat fee plus disbursements, which are third-party costs such as title searches and registration fees. Ask for the total in writing.
