Frequently Asked Questions

The county documentary transfer tax is set by law at $0.55 for each $500 of value, and a city may add its own. The law says it does not apply to a transfer by gift or because of death. A taxable deed must show the tax due or the exemption on the deed.
The county recorder where the property is located. Recording is done by you, a title company, or another person you choose. We prepare the document at your direction. Check your county recorder's website for current rules and fees.
