Excessive Transfer Taxes Stifle CRE Development Webinar

Many state and local governments place a tax on the transfer of the deed between the seller and buyer during commercial and residential real estate transactions. These transfer taxes generally generate revenues for government services and programs based on a percentage of the overall value of the real estate transaction. This webinar will focus on the detrimental impact of excessive transfer taxes on commercial real estate transactions and development, and how NAIOP is working to oppose efforts to increase these taxes in different communities across the U.S.
