To whom it may concern,

On Wednesday, November 3, 2021, the Municipality of Murrysville enacted an ordinance raising their realty transfer tax rate from 0.5 % to 1.00 %

This ordinance takes effect on January 1, 2022.

All deeds, recorded on or after this date, corresponding to real property located in the Municipality of Murrysville will be subject to total realty transfer tax of 2.5 %. 

Transfer taxes on deeds are imposed at the time of recording. The date on the actual document, date of delivery to grantee or date of closing has no effect on such tax.

Starting January 1, 2022, any deed that is submitted to our office for recording, that does not have the appropriate tax checks attached will be rejected.
