How the Maine Transfer Tax is Calculated
Maine’s transfer tax, known as the Real Estate Transfer Tax (“RETT”), is calculated at $2.20 for every $500 (or fractional part thereof) of the property’s sale price.
For example, if you sold your home for $376,000 (Maine’s median home price), you could expect to pay $827.20 in Maine transfer taxes.
