Georgia transfer tax calculator.

Georgia's real estate transfer tax is small and often misunderstood. This is the exact figure for your sale price.

The rate is set by the Georgia Department of Revenue: $1 for the first $1,000 or part of $1,000, then 10 cents for each additional $100 or part of $100. Filed on form PT-61.

Questions about this

Who pays the transfer tax in Georgia?

The seller is legally liable for the Georgia transfer tax, but the sales contract frequently assigns it to the buyer instead. It is negotiable like any other closing term. Either way it is filed on form PT-61 and paid before the deed can be recorded with the Clerk of Superior Court.
