Property tax adjustments are another line item, since the City of Saskatoon prorates taxes between buyer and seller based on the possession date, and a buyer closing partway through the year may owe the seller a credit at closing rather than paying nothing until the next tax bill.
Buyers also need to plan for a lawyer's title work through Information Services Corporation, moving costs, and a reserve for immediate repairs, since a home inspection at $400 to $600 often surfaces small items worth fixing before or right after possession.
