An Act amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), known as the Tax Reform Code of 1971, in realty transfer tax, further providing for excluded transactions; and, in local real estate transfer tax, further providing for imposition.

Maddy summaryThis bill modifies Pennsylvania's tax laws to exempt first-time home buyers from state realty transfer taxes and grants local governments the authority to impose their own real estate transfer taxes. Under the new state provision, individuals who have never owned a single-family home in any state can avoid the transfer tax when purchasing such a property, provided that all buyers listed on the deed are first-time purchasers. Conversely, the bill allows specific local entities, such as cities, boroughs, and school districts, to vote on whether to levy a local transfer tax on property transactions within their boundaries. If a local government chooses to enact this tax, the exemption for first-time home buyers will not apply to that local levy.
