When and who to pay?

The welcome tax is paid only once, to the Cidade de Deux-Montagnes. The bill arrives a few weeks after the deed of sale is registered. Include this amount in your budget, along with the down payment and the notary's fees. If the municipal assessment (multiplied by the comparative factor) is higher than the price paid, that amount is used for the calculation.

What amount is the welcome tax calculated on?

On the higher of two amounts: the price paid, or the municipal assessment multiplied by the year's comparative factor. In a market where prices are rising, it is almost always the price paid.

When is the welcome tax due?

Only once, to the Ville de Deux-Montagnes. The bill arrives a few weeks after the deed of sale is registered with the notary, and it generally must be paid within 30 days. Include this amount in your budget from the offer to purchase.
