What documentary stamp tax means when you sell
Nebraska charges documentary stamp tax when a deed transfers real estate; state law makes the seller responsible.
For transfers before January 1, 2032, the rate is $3.32 for each $1,000 of value or part of $1,000. For example, a $150,500 transfer is rounded up to $151,000 for this calculation, making the tax $501.32. The scheduled rate is $2.32 after that date. The tax is paid to the county Register of Deeds when the deed is recorded.
Some transfers are exempt, including certain transfers between spouses or between parents and children with no payment, and a personal representative’s deed transferring property to heirs. Ask the title or closing professional to check whether an exemption and this calculation apply to your sale.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Nebraska's documentary stamp tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.
