An Ohio sale-cost fact

Ask the Auditor about the conveyance fee

For the local amount, contact the Washington County Auditor using the directory above. Ohio charges a required state conveyance fee of $1 per $1,000 of sale price, and a county may add up to $3 per $1,000. The Ohio conveyance fee applies when a house sells. When you sell to us, we pay it.

The Recorder handles deed recording, not conveyance-fee questions. The statewide fee is addressed in Ohio Revised Code Sections 319.54 and 322.02; this page does not state a Washington County local amount.
