FAQ

In some circumstances, you can avoid a small portion of the transfer taxes. When selling a house or condo with a mortgage, your buyer can utilize a CEMA. Most of the CEMA savings will come from the buyer avoiding the mortgage recording tax but the seller also saves on the NYS transfer taxes.

Generally, for New York estate tax purposes, if the value of assets passing to beneficiaries other than a spouse or charity is below a certain threshold ($6.94 million in 2024), the assets are fully exempt from tax and no New York estate taxes will be due.

New York State Rate: Generally, the state tax rate is 0.5% of the mortgage amount. 2. Additional Local Taxes: In New York City, the total rate can be up to 2.8% for mortgages over $500,000.

Refinance Mortgage Tax Savings The NYS mortgage tax can be greatly reduced or waived if the existing lender (Bank A) agrees to “assign” its mortgage to the new lender (Bank B) and the new lender agrees to a CEMA.
