Yes. The NYC Mansion Tax is a "cliff" tax: at $999,999 the Mansion Tax is $0, whereas at $1,000,000 the 1.00% tax applies to the entire $1,000,000 purchase price ($10,000). Why are NYC condo closing costs more than double co-op closing costs? Condo buyers financing their purchase must pay the 1.80%–1.925% NYC Mortgage Recording Tax plus fee/mortgage title insurance (~0.45%), whereas co-op buyers are exempt from both Mortgage Recording Tax and owner title insurance. What extra closing costs apply when buying a new development sponsor condo in NYC? In new development sponsor sales, contracts routinely shift the seller’s NYC RPT (1.0%–1.425%) and NYS Transfer Tax (0.40%–0.65%) onto the buyer, adding 1.825% to 2.075% to buyer closing costs. Can the NYC Mansion Tax be financed into my mortgage loan? No. Lenders will not increase Loan-to-Value above the appraised purchase price to cover Mansion Tax; it must be paid in liquid funds at the closing table.
