Capital gain on a sale: what is taxable

Your principal residence: generally no tax on the gain. The same federal rule applies in Kawartha Lakes as everywhere in Canada (Income Tax Act).

Capital gain$100,000
Your principal residence (designated every year)$0 taxable
Other property (cottage, rental): taxable amount$50,000
Land transfer tax$0 — paid by the buyer
Agent's commissionnegotiated, not computed

Principal residence designated for every year owned: nothing taxable, but the sale must be reported. Other property: $50,000 of taxable amount is added to your income for the year; the resulting tax depends on your marginal rate and is not computed here.

Principal residence: the Canada Revenue Agency exemption wipes out the gain for each year the home is designated; the sale must still be reported (partial designation: part of the gain becomes taxable). Other property (cottage, rental): half the gain becomes a taxable amount, added to that year's income (1/2 inclusion rate, CRA guide T4037; the increase to 2/3 was cancelled on March 21, 2025 — checked on canada.ca on October 15, 2026). It is not the tax owed: that depends on your marginal rate, which Payotte does not compute. Gain = sale price − purchase price, before selling costs and deductible improvements. No official schedule sets the agent's commission. Tax on selling, case by case

In their own words

His advice to clients, in his own words

“The advice I give clients most often is: start with a clear, honest valuation, and build your plan from there — not from what the market did last year. When you price it right, prepare it well, and plan it properly from the start, you negotiate from a position of strength and stay in control, whether you're buying or selling.”

Gerry Lodwick, written answer of November 11, 2026. Published word for word.

The clients he helps most, in his own words

“The clients I help most are first-time buyers, families moving up or moving on, cottage and waterfront owners, and people starting a new chapter — downsizing, settling a family home, or moving after a big life change. I lead The Lodwick Team at Royal LePage Kawartha Lakes Realty, so you get a full team behind you, not just a solo agent, from listing to closing.”

What is the AI Passport?

The AI Passport is a dated page a professional gets on Payotte so that search engines and AI assistants read them correctly: their name, licence and contact details in one place, with a link to the official register. It is neither a ranking nor a recommendation. Payotte does not score professionals who have a Passport, and it does not replace your own check: consult the register before signing.
