Homeownership in Southwest Middlesex comes with a number of expenses, one of them being property taxes. This tax is crucial in providing local residents with essential services, including garbage collection, fire protection and policing. Each year, the municipality determines its property tax rate - which typically falls in the range of 0.5 to 2.5%. Some Southwest Middlesex 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 instance, if your home's market value is $800,000 and the municipality's property tax rate is 0.5%, you'd pay $4,000 that year.

When looking for a house in Southwest Middlesex, 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. At Strata, we advise our buyer clients to get a good estimate of closing costs early on. These costs can range anywhere from 1.5% - 2% of the overall purchase price. So consider a purchase price of $500,000 - 2% on that is $10,000 which should be accounted for upfront. In Canada, regardless of where you purchase, all buyers must pay a land transfer tax. These amounts are set up by the individual provinces, with some municipalities imposing a second tax upon closing. If you're a first-time homebuyer, however, you could be eligible for a government rebate to bring down these costs. Lastly, you'll need a Southwest Middlesex 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.
