What to bring

  • government-issued photo ID for each person signing
  • the payment your closing agent specified, in the form they specified (confirm amount and method the day before)
  • signed copies of the purchase agreement and any amendments
  • proof of homeowner's insurance if your lender or closing agent asked for it
  • any document your closing agent, lender, or attorney listed in their closing instructions
  • a pen and this packet.

Transfer & recording facts — New Jersey

Who pays the transfer tax

For deeds submitted for recording on or after July 10, 2025, New Jersey places legal responsibility for transfer fees on the seller. A private contract may allocate payment differently; that does not change the seller’s statutory liability. The county recording officer still requires payment of the Realty Transfer Fee when it is owed.

According to NJ Division of Taxation.

Transfer tax rate or amount

Not yet verified — transfer tax

Recording prerequisite or required form

New Jersey’s GIT/REP forms are submitted at closing for deed recording, separately from Realty Transfer Fee paperwork. They establish whether a nonresident seller must prepay estimated Gross Income Tax. GIT/REP-3 is the Seller’s Residency Certification/Exemption.

According to NJ Division of Taxation.

Day-of checklist

  1. Morning: confirm time, place, amount, and payment method with your closing agent.
  2. Call the recording office above if any recording question is still open — do not assume it can be answered at the table.
  3. Bring ID and payment (§ What to bring).
  4. Read each document before signing; ask for any blank or changed figure to be explained before you sign.
  5. Get a copy of every signed document before you leave.
  6. Ask when and where the deed will be recorded, and how you will receive the recorded copy.
  7. After closing: keep the recorded deed, the settlement statement, and the tax office contact above together — property tax questions after closing go to the treasurer/tax office listed above.
