Frequently Asked Questions
Where are Manassas deeds recorded?
The Clerk of the Prince William County Circuit Court records deeds for Prince William County and for the independent cities of Manassas and Manassas Park. The land records office is in the Judicial Center at 9311 Lee Avenue in Manassas.
Is Manassas part of Prince William County for closing costs?
Manassas is an independent city, so it sets its own real estate tax separately from Prince William County. Deeds are still recorded at the Prince William County Circuit Court, and the Northern Virginia regional fees apply to Manassas sales.
What taxes does a seller pay when selling a home in Manassas?
The seller customarily pays Virginia's grantor tax of $1 per $1,000 of the price (Va. Code § 58.1-802) plus two Northern Virginia regional fees of $0.10 per $100 each (§§ 58.1-802.3 and 58.1-802.4), which apply in the City of Manassas.
How much is title insurance on a Manassas home?
It depends on the price and the underwriter. In Stewart Title's published Virginia schedule, a standard owner's policy on a $450,000 home is $1,893.50 before discounts, and the lender's policy issued with it is $200. Virginia rates can be negotiated, so compare quotes.
Who pays for owner's title insurance in Manassas?
The buyer customarily pays for both the owner's and lender's policies in Virginia, though the contract can shift the owner's policy to the seller.
