I am looking at a list of closing costs for a Maryland property settlement.
Who traditionally pays transfer taxes the buyer or the seller? Thanks for your help
Apparently a first-time homebuyer may be exempt from the transfer tax in Maryland.
Who usually pays the transfer tax will vary in other states. In Michigan, by law the Seller is responsible for the transfer tax--unless agreed upon otherwise.
