Property conveyance is the legal work that transfers ownership of a home or condominium. A property conveyance lawyer in Toronto is commonly needed after an agreement is signed, when a purchase, sale, refinance, or title transfer must be registered correctly.
Our lawyers review the agreement, examine title, raise requisitions where needed, prepare transfer and closing documents, calculate adjustments, and coordinate funds and registrations. John Zinati leads the firm and brings a practical focus to the documents that affect your closing.
Every transaction differs, especially with Toronto condos, older homes, or lender conditions. Book a conversation with a lawyer to discuss your property, timing, and quote without obligation.

Our residential conveyancing fee is $999* + tax for purchases, sales, mortgage refinances, and title transfers. It is fixed because clients should be able to budget for legal fees. It excludes land transfer tax, government registration fees, and disbursements, which vary by transaction and are itemized before you commit.
You pay nothing until closing, which avoids an upfront payment while your matter is being prepared. For 25+ years, we have served Toronto and Ontario property owners with a lawyer-led approach. When you book, you speak directly with a lawyer, not a representative, so your questions start with the person responsible for legal advice.

Professional title searchers, not clerks, conduct title examinations because registered ownership, easements, charges, and notices need careful review before closing documents are finalized.
The firm has closed over 25,000 real estate deals without a title claim. That record reflects sustained attention to title review, requisitions, registration details, and closing follow-up.
You speak with a lawyer when you book because conveyancing questions can affect deadlines, financing, tenancy arrangements, or the terms you sign. A lawyer can explain the general legal issues in your file.
Clients have given Zinati Kay a 4.9/5 rating from 340+ reviews. The firm is also an award-winning Toronto real estate law practice, reflecting a long-standing focus on residential transactions.
We review the agreement of purchase and sale, investigate title, prepare requisitions, calculate land transfer tax and adjustments, receive lender instructions, and register the transfer after closing conditions are satisfied.
We obtain payout and discharge information, prepare sale documents, respond to buyer requisitions, coordinate undertakings, and account for funds. For Toronto sales, municipal and provincial land transfer tax are buyer-side charges, but other sale costs can still apply.
Condominium work includes reviewing the status certificate and related records when available, confirming title details, and addressing closing adjustments. This matters in Toronto's active condo market, where fees, special assessments, and occupancy details require review.
We can assist with mortgage refinancing and transfers between family members or other owners. The work may involve lender instructions, title review, registration documents, and consideration of whether land transfer tax or other legal issues arise.

Your lawyer explains the documents that require your signature and confirms the information needed for closing. Remote or virtual signing is available across Ontario where suitable, while some documents or identity steps may require specific handling.
On closing, funds, registrations, and undertakings are managed through the required channels. After registration, we provide reporting documents and address ordinary post-closing items, such as confirming registration or forwarding relevant records to you.
