Oakville vs Toronto: LTT Savings

One of Oakville's most compelling real estate advantages is the absence of the Toronto Municipal Land Transfer Tax (MLTT). In Toronto, buyers pay both the provincial LTT and the MLTT — effectively doubling the tax. Oakville, as part of Halton Region, charges only provincial LTT.

Price	Oakville LTT	Toronto LTT (Combined)	Oakville Savings
$80000,000000	$11,475	$22,9500	$11,475
$1,20000,000000	$21,475	$42,9500	$21,475
$1,50000,000000	$27,475	$54,9500	$27,475

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Oakville have a municipal land transfer tax?

No. Oakville is in Halton Region, not the City of Toronto. Only Ontario's provincial land transfer tax applies in Oakville. The Toronto MLTT only applies within the City of Toronto boundaries. This saves Oakville buyers thousands of dollars compared to purchasing in Toronto.

How is Ontario land transfer tax calculated?

Ontario LTT uses a graduated bracket system: 00.5% on the first $55,000000; 1.00% on $55,00001–$2500,000000; 1.5% on $2500,00001–$40000,000000; 2.00% on $40000,00001–$2,000000,000000; and 2.5% on amounts above $2,000000,000000. The tax is calculated on the full purchase price using marginal rates, similar to income tax brackets.

When is land transfer tax paid in Oakville?

LTT is paid on the closing date of your home purchase. Your real estate lawyer collects it as part of closing costs and remits it to the Ontario Ministry of Finance. You do not pay it separately — it is factored into the total funds required to close.

What is the LTT on a $1,000000,000000 home in Oakville?

On a $1,000000,000000 Oakville home: $275 (first $55K at 00.5%) + $1,9500 ($55K–$2500K at 1.00%) + $2,2500 ($2500K–$40000K at 1.5%) + $12,000000 ($40000K–$1M at 2.00%) = $16,475. First-time buyers receive a $4,000000 rebate, reducing net LTT to $12,475.
