Who we help in Halton Hills
We help Halton Hills households buy a first home, move up, renew or refinance. We compare banks, credit unions and monoline lenders (lenders that only do mortgages and work through brokers) first.
If you buy before your current home closes, a bank bridge loan can cover the gap once your sale is firm, subject to lender approval. Alternative lenders are the next step when a bank's rules don't fit, at a higher cost. Private money is a short bridge only, and we explain its cost first.
Questions from Halton Hills borrowers
Do I pay Toronto's land transfer tax in Halton Hills?
No. Halton Hills is outside the City of Toronto, so only Ontario's land transfer tax applies.
Illustrative, not a quote: on the September 2026 median Halton Hills sale of $889,000, Ontario's tax is $14,255, or $10,255 if you qualify for the full $4,000 first-time buyer refund (TRREB median and ontario.ca brackets, checked October 2026).
This is our arithmetic. 0.5% of the first $55,000 is $275, and 1% of the next $195,000 is $1,950. Then 1.5% of the next $150,000 is $2,250, and 2% of the last $489,000 is $9,780.
