Estimate
Virginia Closing Cost Planner
Planning range based on published Virginia recording-tax rules and clearly labeled allowances.
How This Planner Works
This is a planning calculator, not a quote. It uses published Virginia recording-tax rules plus labeled allowances for title search, title insurance, settlement, and recording services.
- Virginia deed recordation tax is calculated from the property value.
- For financed transactions, deed-of-trust recordation tax is calculated from the loan amount.
- The local recordation-tax add-on is modeled at the statutory maximum of one-third of the state tax.
- Title and settlement allowances are shown as ranges.
Not included: lender fees, prepaid taxes/insurance, HOA/condo charges, commissions, prorations, payoff amounts, special endorsements, and other transaction-specific charges.
No confidential documents, financial account information, or Social Security numbers are needed for this calculator.
