    How much is land transfer tax in Barrie?

    Closing taxes in Barrie come to about $12,075 on a $780,000 purchase. First-time buyer rebates can reduce this where the province offers them.

    Does 8Twelve have mortgage agents licensed in Barrie?

    Yes. 8Twelve Mortgage is licensed in Ontario and works with Barrie homeowners and buyers across purchases, renewals, refinances and debt consolidation, with access to more than 65 lenders rather than a single bank's rate sheet.

    Is a mortgage broker better than my bank in Barrie?

    A bank can only offer its own products. A broker shops the same application across banks, credit unions, monoline lenders and alternative lenders, then presents the best approval. For Barrie borrowers with self-employment income, rental income or a thin credit file, that breadth is usually the difference between an approval and a decline.
