Droits de Mutation Laval 2024 — Welcome Tax Calculator

Laval buyers pay provincial Quebec droits de mutation with no additional municipal surtax. This makes Laval advantageous for buyers of higher-priced properties compared to purchasing on the island of Montreal.

⚠️ Quebec has NO first-time buyer rebate on droits de mutation.
Unlike Ontario (up to $4,000 rebate) or some other provinces, Quebec offers zero provincial refund on the welcome tax for first-time buyers. Every buyer pays the full amount — plan accordingly.

Laval vs. Montreal Droits Comparison

On a $700,000 home, Laval droits are approximately $1,000 less than Montreal because of Montreal's $500K+ municipal surtax. This gap widens on more expensive properties.

When Is the Bill Sent?

Ville de Laval sends the droits de mutation invoice after the deed is registered. You typically have 30 days to pay. Keep $5,000–$15,000 liquid after closing depending on your purchase price.
