What it costs to buy 70 Driftwood Avenue 161
At the asking price of $474,999, a buyer in the City of Toronto pays two land transfer taxes on closing. North York is inside the City, so both apply.
| Asking price | $474,999 |
|---|---|
| Ontario land transfer tax | $5,975 |
| Toronto municipal land transfer tax | $5,975 |
| Both taxes | $11,950 |
| First-time buyer relief, if you qualify | up to $8,475 |
| Minimum down payment | $23,750 |
The down payment figure is the federal minimum: 5 percent of the price. A lender can ask for more. These figures use the asking price, so they change if you pay more or less. Legal fees, title insurance and adjustments are extra: ask your lawyer for a written quote. You can change the price in our land transfer tax calculator and our mortgage calculator.

| Maintenance fee | $536 a month |
|---|---|
| Property tax (2026) | $1,427 a year, about $119 a month |
| Fee and tax together | about $655 a month |
The listing says the maintenance fee includes cable TV, parking and upkeep of the common elements. That is before a mortgage payment, home insurance and any utilities the fee does not cover. Maintenance fees are set each year in the condo corporation's budget and can go up. The status certificate shows the current fee, the budget behind it and the reserve fund.
What to check before you make an offer
- Order the status certificate. A condo corporation must provide it within 10 days of a request and can charge up to $100. It shows the fee for this unit, any arrears, the budget, the reserve fund balance and any special assessment or lawsuit the corporation knows about.
- Have a lawyer read it. The certificate comes with the declaration, by-laws and rules. Ask what they say about pets, renting the unit and renovations. The listing gives pets as "Yes-with Restrictions".
- Confirm the parking and locker. The listing shows 1 parking space and a locker. Ask whether each is owned, exclusive use or rented, and get the unit numbers.
- Check the reserve fund study. Ask when the last study was done and whether it calls for higher contributions.
- Get your financing in writing. A lender looks at the fee and the property tax as well as the price.
- See it in person. photos do not show noise, light at different hours or the state of the hallways and elevators.
