Does Burlington have a municipal land transfer tax?
No. Burlington has no city land transfer tax, so buyers here pay only Ontario's (Toronto is the only Ontario city with its own). On a home bought for $850,800 (Burlington's October 2026 benchmark), Ontario's land transfer tax is $13,491. First-time buyers can get up to $4,000 of it refunded.
