Property tax is one of the things you'll need to consider when estimating the cost of owning a house in Timmins. This tax helps pay for a variety of services, including garbage collection and snow removal. Property tax rates are assessed and determined annually by your municipality. They usually fall somewhere between 0.5 to 2.5%. Some Timmins 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.

A common mistake buyers make is overlooking the closing costs associated with purchasing a house in Timmins. These fees are standard in real estate, but can still catch you off guard if you're unprepared. 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. First-time homebuyers could be eligible for a government rebate - your real estate lawyer can help you apply for this rebate at the time of closing.

Although fees can vary, expect to set aside somewhere around $1,500 - $2,000 on closing to cover your legal costs.
