Ontario Probate & Estate Realization FAQ
Frequently requested statutory considerations for Estate Trustees under the Ontario Estate Administration Act and Real Estate and Business Brokers Act (REBBA).
help Can you list and sell a property before Probate is officially granted in Ontario?
Yes. Under Ontario law, an Estate Trustee named in a valid Will possesses the fundamental legal authority to list the deceased's real estate on MLS and enter into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale prior to the issuance of the formal Certificate of Appointment of Estate Trustee. However, the purchase contract MUST contain a mandatory "Subject to Probate" condition drafted with specific protective milestones to ensure the closing date can extend without buyer penalty while court processing finishes. This prevents mounting carrying costs and municipal tax arrears.
calculate How is Ontario Estate Administration Tax (EAT) accurately calculated on real estate?
The Estate Administration Tax is calculated on the total gross value of the estate assets situated in Ontario at the exact date of death. On the first $50,000 of estate assets, there is $0 tax. Above $50,000, the rate is $15 per every $1,000 of asset value (equivalent to 1.5%). Because residential properties frequently form the bulk of taxable value, an accurate Fair Market Value (FMV) historical appraisal from 101GROUP ensures the executor does not overpay provincial taxes while defending against CRA audit reassessment.
balance How does the 1% listing mandate protect an Executor from beneficiary disputes?
Beneficiaries have the statutory right to request a formal Court Passing of Accounts. In high-value GTA real estate, paying an automatic, traditional 5% listing commission when identical or superior results can be accomplished via 101GROUP's 1% Mandate invites potential claims that the executor failed to act with fiscal prudence. Our complete service structure provides full professional photography, 3D architectural scanning, and global MLS syndication for 1% commission, preserving $20,000 to $60,000 in immediate liquid equity directly for the estate heirs.
home_repair_service What happens if the estate has no available cash liquidity for repairs or cleanout?
This is one of the most common executor dilemmas: bank accounts are frozen pending probate, yet the family home requires urgent repairs or debris removal. 101GROUP solves this by fronting up to $50,000+ in necessary physical improvements, painting, staging, and cleanout services through our in-house construction division with $0 out-of-pocket required from the executor or heirs. All fronted capital is settled at closing directly via the estate lawyer.
