2026 Ontario LTT Calculator · First-Time Buyer Rebate · Durham Region
Buying in Uxbridge means you pay only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax — there is no Toronto Municipal Land Transfer Tax (MLTT) here. At the Uxbridge median of $850,000, a buyer in Toronto would pay approximately $26,950 in combined LTT, while a Uxbridge buyer pays just $13,475 — a saving of $13,475.
Ontario LTT is calculated using a marginal bracket system — similar to income tax. Only the portion of the purchase price within each bracket is taxed at that rate:
| Portion of Purchase Price | Tax Rate | Max Tax in Bracket |
|---|---|---|
| First $55,000 | 0.5% | $275 |
| $55,001 – $250,000 | 1.0% | $1,950 |
| $250,001 – $400,000 | 1.5% | $2,250 |
| $400,001 – $2,000,000 | 2.0% | $32,000 |
| Above $2,000,000 | 2.5% | Unlimited |

Ontario's First-Time Homebuyer Land Transfer Tax Rebate can save you up to $4,000 on your Ontario LTT bill. Here's how it works:
First-time buyers in Uxbridge look at detached homes in the village core or newer subdivisions in the $700K–$950K range.
At Uxbridge's median price of $850,000, a first-time buyer pays $13,475 in Ontario LTT, receives a $4,000 rebate, and owes a net $9,475 at closing.
The City of Toronto charges its own Municipal Land Transfer Tax (MLTT) on top of the provincial Ontario LTT — effectively doubling the transfer tax burden. Since Uxbridge is in Durham Region and not within Toronto's city limits, buyers here pay only the Ontario LTT.
| Scenario | Ontario LTT | Toronto MLTT | Total LTT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buy in Uxbridge at $850,000 | $13,475 | None | $13,475 |

| Savings by buying in Uxbridge | $13,475 | ||
That's $13,475 more you keep in your pocket — money that could cover moving costs, furniture, or go straight into your FHSA or RRSP.
