VA grantor tax: $0.50/$500 on the seller. In Northern Virginia the seller also owes two regional fees at $0.10/$100 each — $0.20/$100 combined — on a purchase; neither applies to a refinance. Buyers pay $0.25/$100 state recordation tax on the deed and on the purchase loan, plus a local third (about $0.083/$100) on both where the locality levies it, as Fairfax, Arlington, Loudoun, Prince William and Alexandria do.

Title insurance uses Pruitt Title's rates: a First American Eagle owner's policy and the lender's policy issued with it, before reissue or other discounts.
