    How do property taxes work in Hearst?

    Aside from mortgage payments, owning a house in Hearst will require that you pay an annual property tax. This tax helps fund many local services, such as snow removal, fire protection, and much more. Property tax rates are assessed and determined annually by your municipality. They usually fall somewhere between 0.5 to 2.5%. Some Hearst residents assume they'll pay more in taxes, depending on the size of their home. However, that's not necessarily true as the city's tax rate is multiplied by the property's current market value - and that can change each year based on the sale of nearby homes. For example, if the assessed market value of a house is $750,000 and the property tax rate is 0.5% - the homeowner would pay $3,750 to their municipality that year.

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

    When purchasing a house in Hearst, 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. Closing costs cannot be rolled into your mortgage. But rather, these are charges paid upfront on the day of closing. To be safe, budget about 2% of the purchase price. For instance, if you're buying a Hearst house for $800,000 - then at least $16,000 should be set aside. 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 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. Lastly, you'll need a Hearst real estate lawyer, not only to facilitate the financial transaction, but to conduct a title search and register the property under your name. A good rule of thumb is to set aside about $1,500 to $2,000 to pay out your real estate lawyer upon closing.
