Frequently asked questions
How is land transfer tax calculated in Toronto?
Toronto buyers pay two taxes: Ontario land transfer tax and Toronto's municipal land transfer tax. Both are marginal: 0.5% up to $55,000, 1% to $250,000, 1.5% to $400,000, 2% to $2,000,000 and 2.5% above that. Since April 1, 2026, Toronto charges higher municipal rates on the portion above $3 million, from 4.4% up to 8.6% above $20 million.
How much is the first-time buyer refund?
Up to $4,000 of the Ontario tax and up to $4,475 of the Toronto tax, for a combined maximum of $8,475, if you qualify.
How much HST rebate can I get on a new home in Ontario?
For agreements signed between April 1, 2026 and March 31, 2027, Ontario's temporary enhanced rebate removes the full 13% HST on eligible new homes up to $1 million, keeps a $130,000 rebate up to $1.5 million, and phases down to $24,000 at $1.85 million. First-time buyers also have a separate federal and Ontario rebate for agreements signed from March 20, 2025 to the end of 2030.
Do I pay Toronto land transfer tax in North York?
Yes. North York, Scarborough and Etobicoke are part of the City of Toronto. Markham, Richmond Hill and Vaughan are not, so buyers there pay only the Ontario tax.
