Ontario Land Transfer Tax Rates 2026

Both Ontario and Toronto use marginal (progressive) brackets โ€” the same structure as income tax. You only pay the higher rate on the portion above each threshold.

๐ŸŽ First-Time Buyer Rebates

If you have never owned a home anywhere in the world, you qualify for both the Ontario and Toronto rebates. The rebate cannot exceed the tax owed.

$4,000 Ontario rebate โ€” fully covers LTT on homes up to ~$368,000
$4,475 Toronto rebate โ€” additional, only for Toronto properties
$8,475 Maximum combined rebate (Toronto first-time buyer)

Rebates are claimed when you register the property transfer at closing โ€” your real estate lawyer handles this automatically.
