Conveyance Tax

Connecticut's real estate conveyance tax is paid by the seller at closing. It includes a state portion (0.75%–1.25% depending on property type and price) and a municipal portion (0.25%–0.50% depending on the town).

Example: On a $500,000 Fairfield home, the seller typically pays state and municipal conveyance taxes totaling roughly $5,000–$6,250.
