Real Estate Legal Transactions
Real Estate Legal Transactions in Ontario
Buying or selling property in Ontario is a major legal undertaking. At DL‑PC, we guide you through every step—contract drafting, title searches, electronic registrations, and closing—making sure you’re protected and compliant throughout.
Why You Must Engage an Ontario Real Estate Lawyer
In Ontario, only licensed lawyers can register property transfers and mortgages electronically via Teraview/Land Registry, so legal counsel is not optional—it’s mandatory
Both buyers and sellers are strongly advised to retain separate counsel to avoid conflicts and ensure your interests are fully represented.
How We Guide You Through the Process
Early Engagement
We recommend bringing us in as soon as an offer is accepted—or sooner—to include a “lawyer review” clause and begin title searches
Contract & Due Diligence
Review your APS, explain key elements, and initiate title/instrument searches. If hidden issues arise, we raise Requisitions and resolve them before closing
Lender Coordination
Drafting and registering mortgage-related documents electronically—including discharges, if needed—ensures lender compliance
Closing & Post-Closing Tasks
Prepare and exchange funds, register transfer and mortgages with the Land Registry Office, finalize disbursements, and send you a Post-Closing Reporting Letter
