Prince George's County· Recording & transfer taxes
Prince George's County carries the highest county transfer tax rate in the Maryland DMV suburbs, but the rate is only half the arithmetic. Bowie's median is well under Montgomery County's, and the smaller base outweighs the higher rate: a median-priced Bowie purchase usually lands below a median-priced Rockville or Bethesda one in total dollars. Compare the dollar figures for your actual price rather than the headline percentages.
Bowie is an incorporated city and adds no transfer tax of its own; deeds record with the Prince George's Circuit Court Clerk in Upper Marlboro.
Prince George's County levies a county transfer tax of 1.4% on top of Maryland's 0.5% state transfer tax — 1.9% combined. On a $450,000 sale that is $8,550 of transfer tax before anything else. Absent an agreement otherwise the county transfer tax is shared evenly between buyer and seller. A qualifying first-time Maryland homebuyer gets a reduced state rate of 0.25%, which the seller then pays in full.
