Property Transfers

How is it calculated?

The property transfer duty is calculated on the higher of the following values:
1.    «consideration» (sale price)
2.    «market value»
3.    «valuation roll»
Where «market value» is represented by the value of the property found on the current evaluation roll multiplied by a comparative factor designed to reflect the up-to date market and/or replacement value. This comparative factor is:
> 1.18 for 2022
> 1.0 for 2023
> 1.10 for 2024
> 1.08 for 2025

In accordance with the provisions of section 264 of the Act respecting municipal taxation (RLRQ, chapter F-2.1) : Median proportion: 93%

  • On the first $61,500 of the property value = 0.5%
  • On the next $61,500.01 of the property value (up to $307, 800) = 1.0%
  • On the next $307,800.01 of the property value (up to $552,300) = 1.5%
  • On the property value over $552 300 =  3%.

Property transfer duties are payable in a single instalment due 30 days after the invoice date.
For any exoneration of duties as stipulated in the deed of sale, the Town reserves the right to request supporting documents.
