How the Riverside County Transfer Tax is Calculated
Riverside County’s transfer tax, known as a Documentary Transfer Tax, is calculated at a rate of $1.10 per $500 of the property’s sale price.
For example, if you sold your home for $613,619 (Riverside County’s median home price), you could expect to pay $1,350 in Riverside County transfer taxes. Sellers are also on the hook for California’s state transfer tax of $1.10 per $1,000 of the home’s sale price, and an additional $1.10 per $500 if the property is located in the city of Riverside.
