COST OF TRANSFER STAMP
A Transfer Stamp costs $4.00 per $1,000.00 of the taxable consideration. This cost is split
between the Buyer ($2.00 per $1,000.00) and Seller ($2.00 per $1,000.00). The Buyer is also
responsible for paying a $45.00 administrative fee.
The Transfer Stamp can also be purchased in full ($4.00 per $1,000.00) by the Buyer or Seller.
Note: The party that comes in to purchase the Transfer Stamp must have all of the required
documentation listed above and must pay for the total cost of the Transfer Stamp plus any
permit fees. This is a one time transaction. One party cannot come in and pay one half of the
Transfer Stamp fees and the other party pays the balance at a later date. All fees must be paid
at the same time…no exceptions!
