- Ontario land transfer tax on $17.9M of commercial property is $354,475 (0.5% to $55K, 1% to $250K, 1.5% to $400K, 2% above). Inside the City of Toronto, the municipal land transfer tax roughly doubles that.
- Add legal and title (about $26,850), a 0.75% lender fee ($74,265), $45,000 of third-party reports and a $150,000 working-capital reserve: total uses $18.55M.
- Equity required: $8.65M — 48% of the price, not the 45% that "price minus loan" suggests.
La leçonThe equity cheque is always larger than price minus loan. Model every use before you commit to a closing date.
