This page points Norfolk sellers to the city’s property-assessment resource, explains the Virginia deed-tax items that can affect a sale, and links to local pages for common selling situations. For property value, unpaid taxes, deeds, and court judgments, identify the specific record or notice first; those are different questions and should not be sent to the Assessor as if they were the same task.
Norfolk is an independent city rather than part of a county. For the city’s own overview, see the City of Norfolk About page ↗.

Start here for an assessed-value or assessment-record question about a Norfolk property. The Assessor describes its jurisdiction as property within Norfolk city limits; valuation questions are separate from deed taxes and court records.
Virginia sale costs
Virginia law puts the grantor tax on the seller: 50 cents for each $500 of the greater of the sale price or value, about 0.1%. Norfolk is among the cities with a regional transportation improvement fee of 0.06%. State and, where adopted, local recordation taxes are separate. The sale contract can change who pays, and exemptions or a transfer with little or no consideration can change the amount. Ask your settlement agent to itemize the figures for your property.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Virginia state and local recordation taxes, grantor tax and any applicable regional WMATA capital fee, regional congestion relief fee or regional transportation improvement fee. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes remain separate.
