    How do property taxes work in Amaranth?

    Aside from mortgage payments, owning a house in Amaranth will require that you pay an annual property tax. This tax is crucial in providing local residents with essential services, including garbage collection, fire protection and policing. The municipality is responsible for assessing properties and determining its property tax rate, which typically land between 0.5 and 2.5%. To determine how much property tax you'll pay, the city will multiply that tax rate by your home's current market value - which can fluctuate year-to-year depending on the value of neighbouring properties. This is why it's not necessarily correct when Amaranth homeowners assume that the bigger their house, the more they'll pay. For instance, if your home's market value is $800,000 and the municipality's property tax rate is 0.5%, you'd pay $4,000 that year.

    What are the typical closing costs for purchasing a house in Amaranth?

    When purchasing a house in Amaranth, you must budget for a series of charges known as 'closing costs'. These costs are necessary in order to finalize your purchase, so be sure to factor them in before making an offer. At Strata, we advise our buyer clients to get a good estimate of closing costs early on. These costs can range anywhere from 1.5% - 2% of the overall purchase price. So consider a purchase price of $500,000 - 2% on that is $10,000 which should be accounted for upfront. In Canada, all buyers are required to pay a land transfer tax when closing on a property. If this is your first home, you can reduce closing costs by applying for a government rebate. Under this program, first-time homebuyers are reimbursed a portion of the land transfer tax. And finally, when buying a home in Amaranth, you'll need a real estate lawyer to close the deal. Although fees can vary, expect to set aside somewhere around $1,500 - $2,000 on closing to cover your legal costs.
