Questions about our fees

Our flat-rate fees include the legal work for your transaction plus standard disbursements — title searches, registration at Land Titles, photocopying, and courier charges. You won't see separate line items for these. Government registration fees (Land Titles) are shown separately in your statement of adjustments.

No. Our fees are quoted upfront and don't change unless your transaction requires non-standard work (such as a non-retail bank mortgage or compliance issues). If additional charges ever apply, we'll explain them and get your approval before proceeding.

These are government fees charged by Alberta Land Titles for registering the transfer of title and your mortgage. They are calculated based on your purchase price and mortgage amount. Our calculator includes an estimate of these fees in your quote so you can see the full picture.

Yes. Our combined Sale + Purchase rate is $2,100 + GST (with a mortgage) or $2,000 + GST (cash purchase) — which saves you $100 compared to booking each transaction separately. You'll also benefit from coordinated timelines and a single point of contact for both files.

Legal fees are typically deducted from the closing proceeds (for sellers) or included in your closing costs statement (for buyers). You won't need to pay anything out of pocket before signing day — everything is handled through the closing process.
