Affordable Homes for Sale
In the City of Richmond Hill
I'm Ali Bolourchi, Broker with REMAX® Your Community Realty, based right here in Richmond Hill. I specialize in helping first-time buyers find affordable condos and townhomes across York Region.
Buying in Richmond Hill — what it costs to close
Do I pay Toronto’s extra land transfer tax if I buy in Richmond Hill?
No. Richmond Hill is in York Region, so you pay the Ontario land transfer tax only. Buyers in Toronto and North York pay a second, municipal land transfer tax on the same purchase. On an identical price that is a real saving of thousands of dollars at closing.
What does that mean for a first-time buyer in Richmond Hill?
There is no municipal land transfer tax to pay in Richmond Hill in the first place, and you can still claim the Ontario refund of up to $4,000. That is money that stays in your down payment rather than going to closing costs.
Down payment rules, closing costs and the full list of first-time buyer programs are in the Buyer’s Handbook. Not sure what you qualify for? Try the free 2-minute eligibility quiz.
