Lackawanna County deed and estate offices

Choose the county page by the question: the Recorder of Deeds handles deed records, while the Register of Wills / Clerk of Orphans' Court is the county's estate-related office.

Pennsylvania realty transfer tax

Pennsylvania charges a 1% state realty transfer tax—a tax on a change of ownership—and a local transfer tax may also apply. Read the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue realty transfer-tax guidance. When you sell to us, we pay the transfer tax. That payment does not cover your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes; those are separate. For unpaid property taxes or liens on a Scranton house, see our property liens and back taxes page.
