Homeownership in Shawanaga comes with a number of expenses, one of them being property taxes. This tax is essential in helping the city provide a number of services, including sewer protection and road maintenance. Each year, your municipality will determine its property tax rate, which typically lands 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 Shawanaga homeowners assume that the bigger their house, the more they'll pay. 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.

When looking for a house in Shawanaga, many buyers will overlook the closing costs. It's important to be aware of what these costs are, so you can budget accordingly prior to 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 Shawanaga house for $800,000 - then at least $16,000 should be set aside. In Canada, all buyers are required to pay a land transfer tax when closing on a property. First-time homebuyers could be eligible to receive a rebate on a portion of taxes paid. And finally, when buying a home in Shawanaga, you'll need a real estate lawyer to close the deal. A good rule of thumb is to set aside about $1,500 to $2,000 to pay out your real estate lawyer upon closing.
