A common mistake buyers make is overlooking the closing costs associated with purchasing a house in Wellesley. These fees are standard in real estate, but can still catch you off guard if you're unprepared. When searching for a house in Wellesley, 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. 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. The most common way to reduce this tax is by applying for the first-time homebuyer rebate. Lastly, you'll need a Wellesley real estate lawyer, not only to facilitate the financial transaction, but to conduct a title search and register the property under your name. Be sure to put aside $2,000 to cover the cost of your real estate lawyer, although legal fees can vary.
