Each city and town in Vermont maintains its own real property records. The office responsible for recording is that of the town (or city) clerk.Recording Fees
Recording fees are $15 per page for all documents recorded.The Vermont Property Transfer Tax Return is $15 to file.
The payment of transfer tax is due on the date of transfer or closing date.

A new form, the PT-173, is a payment voucher that must accompany all transfer tax payments.
