Helpful New York rule

Check transfer tax when comparing sale proceeds

New York State real estate transfer tax is $2 for each $500 of the sale price, or part of $500, when the price exceeds $500. The seller normally pays this base tax, but the sale agreement can provide otherwise; local transfer taxes may add to it. A separate 1% mansion tax normally paid by the buyer applies to residential sales of $1 million or more.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including New York State real estate transfer tax and any applicable local real estate transfer taxes. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
