Aside from mortgage payments, owning a house in O'Connor will require that you pay an annual property tax. This tax is essential in helping the city provide a number of services, including sewer protection and road maintenance. The municipality is responsible for assessing properties and determining its property tax rate, which typically land between 0.5 and 2.5%. This tax is not necessarily dictated by the size of your house, which is what many O'Connor homeowners tend to believe. But rather, the city's tax rate is multiplied by the property's current market value - and that can fluctuate year-to-year based on recently sold homes. Let's say your property's market value is $700,000 and the municipal property tax rate is 0.5%. This means you'd owe $3,500 in property taxes that year.

A common mistake buyers make is overlooking the closing costs associated with purchasing a house in O'Connor. These fees are standard in real estate, but can still catch you off guard if you're unprepared. When searching for a house in O'Connor, 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. All buyers are subject to the province's land transfer tax. The most common way to reduce this tax is by applying for the first-time homebuyer rebate. Lastly, you'll need a O'Connor real estate lawyer, not only to facilitate the financial transaction, but to conduct a title search and register the property under your name. Depending on the complexities of the deal, legal fees can range. But budgeting $2,000 for your lawyer is a good place to start.
