Nebraska Judicial Branch — Douglas County Court ↗A Nebraska sale fact
On a taxable Nebraska deed transfer, the grantor—the person signing the deed—owes documentary stamp tax by law. For transfers before January 1, 2032, the rate is $3.32 for each $1,000 of value or part of $1,000. Round the value up to the next $1,000: a $100,000 sale owes $332, and a $150,500 sale owes $501.32. The rate is set to drop to $2.32 after that period.
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. You can ask the closing professional to confirm whether an exemption applies and show the tax figure for the actual deed.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Nebraska's documentary stamp tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and your share of current property taxes are separate.
