Closing Costs to Consider

When purchasing property in Nova Scotia, it's crucial to account for closing costs. These expenses go beyond your down payment and are payable on the closing day. It's worth noting that in most real estate transactions, buyers provide a deposit during the conditional period to show their commitment to the purchase. This deposit is held in trust, and at closing, these funds are put towards your closing costs.

Below are the most common closing costs. This list is not exhaustive. It’s best to confirm with your lawyer during the conditional period the closing costs relevant to your transaction.

“We have bought and/or sold 3 properties with Andrew and would highly recommend him to anyone in the market. Andrew’s experience was obvious as we tried to navigate a very unpredictable market. Andrew did a great job of managing our expectations and being available whenever we need him. We feel very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with Andrew. He is responsive, realistic, and honest. We will continue to work with Andrew in the future.”
