What it costs to buy 35 Russell Dawson Road
At the asking price of $888,000, a buyer in Markham pays Ontario land transfer tax on closing. The City of Toronto is the Ontario municipality that charges a municipal land transfer tax of its own, so there is no second tax here.
| Asking price | $888,000 |
|---|---|
| Ontario land transfer tax | $14,235 |
| First-time buyer refund, if you qualify | up to $4,000 |
| Minimum down payment | $63,800 |
The down payment figure is the federal minimum: 5 percent of the first $500,000 and 10 percent of the rest. A lender can ask for more. These figures use the asking price, so they change if you pay more or less. The tax is worked out at the published rates for a home with one or two single family residences and your lawyer confirms the final amount. Legal fees, title insurance and adjustments are extra: our closing costs guide lists them. This is general information, not legal or tax advice. Confirm the figures with a lawyer or accountant. You can change the price in our land transfer tax calculator and our mortgage calculator.
What it costs to own each month
| Property tax (2026) | $5,426 a year, about $452 a month |

That is before a mortgage payment, home insurance and utilities. These are the figures on the listing, so check the current tax bill before you rely on them.

Questions about Cathedraltown
Do you have to be Catholic to live in Cathedraltown?
No. The Cathedral of the Transfiguration is the architectural centrepiece of the community and nothing more than that. Residents come from every background.
What are the architectural rules like?
Tighter than a typical Markham subdivision. Elevations, materials and colours were controlled at build, which is why the streetscape reads as a single design. Check the specific restrictions on title before you plan an exterior change.
Is the community finished?
Development has run in phases over many years. Confirm what is still to be built near any address you are considering, because a construction site next door changes daily life.
How is the commute?
Highway 404 is the usual route and it is close. There is no GO station in the neighbourhood, so downtown commuters drive to a station first.
Is it walkable?
Within the community, yes. To shops and services, mostly not. Groceries and retail are a drive along Major Mackenzie Drive.
How does it compare to Angus Glen?
Angus Glen skews larger and more established. Cathedraltown is more uniform. From January to March 2026 its all property types median was $1,200,000 against $1,349,000 in Angus Glen (TRREB). Buyers often look at both.
