To calculate the total LTT payable for residential properties, add the following together:
0.5% on the first $55,000
plus 1.0% of the amount from $55,001 to $250,000
plus 1.5% of the amount in excess of $250,001 to $400,000
plus 2.0% of the amount in excess of $400,000
OR use the following table:
Purchase Price | Calculation of LTT |
$0 ~ $55,000 | .005 x Amount |
$55,001 ~ $250,000 | ( .01 x Amount ) minus $275 |
$250,001 ~ $400,000 | ( .015 x Amount ) minus $1,525 |
$400,000 up | ( .02 x Amount ) minus $3,525 |
If the purchase price falls within this range, then apply formula to purchase price (e.g. on a $175,000 home (.01 X 175,000) minus 275=LTT) For additional information please contact the Ontario Ministry of Finance (Mr. Ron Hogan 416-325-2175).
