Ajax market snapshot
Ajax averaged $907,336 in July, up 0.7% from a year ago, so prices are essentially flat. Detached homes lead at $1,031,868, while townhouses sit near $786,450 against a soft 2025 comparison. Homes took about 25 days to sell, unchanged from last year, so sensibly priced listings in this lakeside Durham commuter town still move.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. In Ontario, only a lawyer can complete the transfer and register your deed. Ownright handles the full closing for Ajax buyers and sellers — title search, mortgage, and registration — online, at a flat fee.
Ajax charges only Ontario's land transfer tax — there is no municipal LTT in Durham Region. On a $907,000 Ajax home, that is about $14,615. First-time buyers can claim up to $4,000 back, bringing it to roughly $10,615.
Ajax's south end and its creek corridors — Duffins Creek, Carruthers Creek, and the Lake Ontario shoreline — sit within Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) regulated areas. That can mean permits or restrictions on building, decks, additions, or grading, plus flood or erosion hazard on title. We check what's registered and flag any conservation limits before you commit.
Beyond your down payment, expect land transfer tax, your legal fee and disbursements, title insurance, and adjustments for prepaid property taxes. Ownright quotes a flat legal fee up front, so you know exactly what you'll pay to close in Ajax.
Ownright charges a flat legal fee for Ajax purchases, sales, and refinances, with disbursements shown separately — no hourly billing or surprise add-ons. You get the full quote before you start, so there are no surprises at closing.
