Aside from mortgage payments, owning a house in North Middlesex 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. Property tax rates usually fall between 0.5 and 2.5%, and are set out by the local municipality. North Middlesex homebuyers will often assume that the bigger the house, the more they'll pay. But this isn't necessarily true as the tax rate is multiplied by the home's current market value, which can change year-to-year based on recently sold properties. Let's say your home's assessed market value is $600,000 and the municipality's property tax rate is 1% - that year you'd pay $6,000.

A common mistake buyers make is overlooking the closing costs associated with purchasing a house in North Middlesex. These fees are standard in real estate, but can still catch you off guard if you're unprepared. When searching for a house in North Middlesex, buyers will typically take into account 1.5% - 2% of their budgeted purchase price for closing costs. For instance, 2% in closing costs on a $500,000 house would be $10,000. Because these charges cannot be lumped into your mortgage, it's crucial to have this money upfront upon closing. A significant portion of your closing costs will be dedicated to the land transfer tax. These taxes are based on a percentage of the total purchase price. The most common way to reduce this tax is by applying for the first-time homebuyer rebate. And lastly, buying North Middlesex 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. Be sure to put aside $2,000 to cover the cost of your real estate lawyer, although legal fees can vary.
