Ajax is a fast-growing Durham Region town with a large South Asian population, strong GO Train access to Toronto, and highly rated schools. Its waterfront area is one of the GTA's hidden gems. First-time buyers in Ajax benefit from Ontario's $4,000 LTT rebate and the absence of Toronto's municipal tax.

Is Ajax in Toronto or Durham Region?
Ajax is in Durham Region — it is not part of the City of Toronto. This is important for land transfer tax purposes: Ajax buyers pay only Ontario provincial LTT. Toronto buyers (including Scarborough) pay both Ontario LTT and Toronto municipal LTT, which effectively doubles the tax burden on the same purchase price.
What is the LTT on a $900,000 home in Ajax?
A $900,000 home in Ajax incurs Ontario LTT of $14,475 (standard buyer) or $10,475 for a first-time buyer after the $4,000 rebate. The calculation: 0.5% on first $55,000 = $275; 1.0% on next $195,000 = $1,950; 1.5% on next $150,000 = $2,250; 2.0% on remaining $500,000 = $100. Total = $14,475.
