How the Pennsylvania Transfer Tax is Calculated
Pennsylvania’s transfer tax, known as a realty transfer tax, is calculated at a rate of 1% of the property’s sales price.
For example, if you sold your home for $301,000 (Pennsylvania’s median home price), you could expect to pay $3,010 in Pennsylvania transfer taxes.
