Your Real Estate Law FAQs Answered

Buying, selling, or refinancing a home can raise many questions, and we’re here to provide clarity. Explore our FAQs for answers to the most common concerns about real estate law and how our virtual services make the process seamless and secure.

Selling a home in Ontario involves several legal steps to ensure a smooth transaction. Initially, you’ll sign a listing agreement with a real estate agent, authorizing them to market your property. Once a buyer is found, you’ll enter into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale, outlining the terms and conditions of the transaction. Your lawyer will then conduct a title search to confirm there are no issues with the property’s title and prepare the necessary closing documents. On closing day, legal ownership is transferred to the buyer, funds are exchanged, and the transaction is finalized. ​

To determine if there are any liens or claims on a property, a title search is conducted. This search examines public records to identify any encumbrances, such as unpaid taxes, mortgages, or legal judgments that could affect ownership. In Ontario, real estate lawyers typically perform this search during the closing process to ensure the title is clear. Identifying and addressing any liens before completing a transaction is crucial to prevent future legal complications. Engaging a lawyer early in the process can help uncover and resolve these issues promptly. ​

If a buyer backs out of a real estate transaction after all conditions have been met, they may forfeit their deposit and could be held liable for breach of contract. The seller has the right to pursue legal action for damages, especially if the property’s market value has decreased or if additional costs were incurred due to the failed transaction. However, if the buyer withdraws during a conditional period (e.g., pending financing approval or a satisfactory home inspection), they can typically do so without penalty. It’s essential to understand the terms outlined in the Agreement of Purchase and Sale to determine the rights and obligations of both parties in such situations. Consulting with a real estate lawyer can provide clarity and guidance on the appropriate steps to take.​

Discharging a mortgage involves formally removing the lender’s interest from your property’s title once the loan is paid off. In Ontario, this process requires obtaining a discharge statement from your lender, which details the remaining balance and any associated fees. Your lawyer will use this statement to pay off the mortgage from the proceeds of the sale during the closing process. After payment, the lender will register the discharge with the appropriate land registry office, officially clearing the mortgage from the property’s title. Ensuring this process is completed correctly is vital to transfer clear title to the new owner. ​

Yes, remote signing processes are legally valid in Brantford and throughout Ontario. As of August 1, 2020, Ontario legislation permits remote commissioning, allowing legal documents to be signed and witnessed electronically. Lawyers and paralegals must adhere to specific regulations to ensure the validity of these documents, including verifying identities and maintaining records of the remote signing session. It’s important to confirm that all parties involved are willing and able to accept electronically signed documents. Engaging a legal professional experienced in remote transactions can help navigate this process effectively.
