• Revenue and Taxation Code section 11930 will be referenced on your deed in order to avoid the assessment of a transfer tax.

As of January 1, 2018, California is imposing a $75 tax on recording documents relating to real property. There are a few exemptions, including a transfer to an owner-occupied residence. Your Guideway associate can tell you if your document(s) is(are) subject to the tax. Since we must pay the tax at the time of recording, we will be collecting it in addition to our fee.
