Aside from mortgage payments, owning a house in White Rock will require that you pay an annual property tax. This tax is used to pay for several essential services, including garbage and recycling collection. Each year, the municipality determines its property tax rate - which typically falls in the range of 0.5 to 2.5%. White Rock homebuyers will often assume that the bigger the house, the more they'll pay. But this isn't necessarily true as the tax rate is multiplied by the home's current market value, which can change year-to-year based on recently sold properties. If your home's market value is $500,000, and the municipal property tax rate is 1% - your property tax for that year would be $5,000.

A common mistake buyers make is overlooking the closing costs associated with purchasing a house in White Rock. These fees are standard in real estate, but can still catch you off guard if you're unprepared. 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 White Rock house for $800,000 - then at least $16,000 should be set aside. A significant portion of your closing costs will be dedicated to the land transfer tax. These taxes are based on a percentage of the total purchase price. First-time homebuyers could be eligible to receive a rebate on a portion of taxes paid. Lastly, you'll need a White Rock real estate lawyer, not only to facilitate the financial transaction, but to conduct a title search and register the property under your name. Although fees can vary, expect to set aside somewhere around $1,500 - $2,000 on closing to cover your legal costs.
