Annual property taxes cannot be overlooked when assessing what it costs to own a house in Loyalist. 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%. Some Loyalist 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.

All buyers must pay a series of closing costs when purchasing a house here. Your realtor and/or real estate agent can best advise on what these charges are. But here's a quick overview of what's involved when buying property in Loyalist. 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. All buyers are subject to the province's land transfer tax. 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. A real estate lawyer is necessary to finalize any purchase in Loyalist, so you'll want to include their fees in your closing costs. Although fees can vary, expect to set aside somewhere around $1,500 - $2,000 on closing to cover your legal costs.
