DC, MD & VA closing cost estimator
Closing costs — especially transfer and recordation taxes — differ sharply across the DMV. The same home can cost noticeably more to close in DC or Maryland than in Virginia. Pick your side of the deal and jurisdiction for a quick estimate. It runs in your browser; when it counts, Kelly and her settlement partner give you exact figures.
Sellers: this excludes the real-estate commission, which is separate and negotiated in your listing agreement.
Get an exact estimate from Kelly →Rough estimate only — not a quote, and not legal or tax advice. Transfer and recordation taxes in the DMV vary by jurisdiction and price tier, are sometimes reduced for first-time buyers, and who pays what is negotiable in the contract. Maryland recordation is tiered; DC and Virginia have their own rules and regional fees. The defaults here are approximate for 2026 — edit any field, and confirm exact figures with your lender and settlement/title company before relying on them. Kelly will walk you through the real numbers for your deal.
Know your costs before you write the offer.
Kelly builds every client a clear, deal-specific cost estimate up front — and negotiates credits and terms to keep more in your pocket.
