One of the carrying costs associated with homeownership in Clearview is your property tax. This tax is used to pay for several essential services, including garbage and recycling collection. Property tax rates are assessed and determined annually by your municipality. They usually fall somewhere between 0.5 to 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 Clearview homeowners assume that the bigger their house, the more they'll pay. If your home's market value is $500,000, and the municipal property tax rate is 1% - your property tax for that year would be $5,000.

A common mistake buyers make is overlooking the closing costs associated with purchasing a house in Clearview. These fees are standard in real estate, but can still catch you off guard if you're unprepared. The average closing costs in this city will typically come to about 1.5% - 2% of the purchase price, although this can vary. For example, 2% in closing costs on an $800,000 house would be $16,000 that you need to budget for. The land transfer tax will make up most of your closing costs. In Canada, all buyers are subject to the LTT imposed by the province. If you're a first-time homebuyer, however, you could be eligible for a government rebate to bring down these costs. And lastly, buying Clearview real estate will require a lawyer you can trust. You'll need to find someone who specializes in this as they'll be finalizing your purchase. Depending on the complexities of the deal, legal fees can range. But budgeting $2,000 for your lawyer is a good place to start.
