Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a real estate lawyer when buying a home?
A real estate lawyer plays an essential role in protecting your legal interests during the purchase of a home. In Ontario, a lawyer is required to complete the legal transfer of ownership, register the property in your name, and ensure that all legal documents are properly prepared and filed.
Your lawyer conducts a title search to verify ownership, identifies any registered liens or encumbrances, reviews the Agreement of Purchase and Sale, prepares the closing documents, calculates adjustments, coordinates with your mortgage lender, and transfers the purchase funds to the seller's lawyer.
Having a lawyer involved early in the transaction can also help identify legal issues before they become costly problems. Whether you are purchasing your first home, an investment property, or a condominium, legal guidance can help ensure your transaction proceeds smoothly.
- What does a real estate lawyer do during a home purchase?
Your lawyer manages the legal aspects of the transaction from the time they receive your file until ownership is transferred.
Typical services include:
- Reviewing the Agreement of Purchase and Sale
- Conducting title searches
- Reviewing easements, rights-of-way, and registered interests
- Communicating with your mortgage lender
- Preparing mortgage and closing documents
- Calculating adjustments for taxes, utilities, and condominium fees
- Arranging title insurance
- Registering the transfer of ownership
- Receiving and disbursing closing funds
- Confirming that legal title has been transferred
Your lawyer also works closely with your real estate agent, lender, and the seller's lawyer to coordinate a successful closing.
- How much does a real estate lawyer cost?
Legal fees vary depending on the complexity of the transaction. Many Ontario real estate law firms offer flat-fee pricing for standard residential purchases and sales.
In addition to legal fees, buyers should budget for disbursements such as:
- Title searches
- Registration fees
- Title insurance
- Courier charges
- Government registration costs
Your lawyer should provide a written estimate outlining both legal fees and anticipated disbursements before work begins.
- What legal fees should I expect when buying a home?
Your closing costs typically include both legal fees and government charges.
Depending on your transaction, costs may include:
- Lawyer's professional fee
- Land registration fees
- Title insurance premium
- Government search fees
- Mortgage registration costs
- HST on legal services
- Applicable Land Transfer Tax
Your lawyer will prepare a Statement of Adjustments that clearly outlines every amount payable before closing.
- Can I choose my own lawyer instead of using my realtor's recommendation?
Yes. You are free to choose the real estate lawyer who represents you.
While real estate agents and mortgage brokers may recommend lawyers they have worked with previously, the decision is entirely yours. Choosing a lawyer who communicates clearly, responds promptly, and has extensive experience in Ontario real estate transactions can help make your purchase less stressful.
- What are title searches?
A title search is one of the most important steps in a real estate transaction. It allows your lawyer to verify that the seller legally owns the property and has the right to sell it.
The search also identifies potential issues such as:
- Mortgages
- Easements
- Rights-of-way
- Construction liens
- Judgments
- Restrictive covenants
If problems are discovered, your lawyer will work to resolve them before closing whenever possible.
