RE:
UNDERWRITING - Groton Municipal Conveyance Tax Change
Dear Associates:
Effective September 12, 2019, the Town of Groton reduced its local conveyance tax rate to one-quarter of one percent, rather than one-half of one percent.
The tax calculators in E-Closing and DisplaySoft software have been updated. Please contact your sales representative if you need assistance in running the DisplaySoft or E-Updates. We are in the process of modifying our stand-alone calculator RateMate. Accurate tax and recording rates can also be found on the Stewart rate website Stewart Rate Calculator.
If you have any questions relating to this or other bulletins, please contact a Stewart Title Guaranty Company underwriter.
