Legal fees sit inside that overall range but are a small, fairly fixed piece of it, typically $800 to $1,500 regardless of price, since every Saskatchewan sale closes through a lawyer for the title transfer through Information Services Corporation.
The rest of the total is commission, which is negotiable and agreed in writing at listing rather than fixed by any board, and adjustments for prepaid property tax or utilities that get settled between buyer and seller at possession.
At $700,000, the gap between an accurate estimate and a rough one is real money, which is exactly why the figure should come from your actual listing agreement rather than a rule of thumb. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
