What do the title and mortgage deeds cost?

The state fees when you buy a house: stamp duty on the title and mortgage deeds, plus fixed fees. For an apartment there is no stamp duty at all.

How we calculate

When you buy a house you register as owner with Lantmäteriet (the title deed) and raise mortgage deeds as security for the loan. You pay stamp duty on both: 1.5 % of the price for the title and 2 % on new mortgage deeds, plus a fixed fee of 825 and 375 kr.

Stamp duty uses the higher value

For the title, the price is compared with the assessed value and the duty is taken on the higher. Existing mortgage deeds that come with the home are free to take over, so you only pay 2 % on any new ones you need on top.

Apartment: no stamp duty

An apartment is not real property, so there is no title or mortgage deed. Instead the association charges a transfer fee and a pledge fee, usually a few hundred to a thousand kronor.
