◦ The tax rate for homes sold for over $3 million will triple to 3%.

ATTENTION - Buyers of NJ Real Estate- Mansion Tax Increase Proposal (could go in effect 7/1/25):

Governor Phil Murphy’s budget proposal for the 2026 fiscal year includes a significant change to the supplemental portion of the New Jersey Realty Transfer Fee, known as the “Mansion Tax.” The proposal suggests increasing the current 1% flat rate to:
• 2% for certain real property purchases between $1 million and $2 million.
• 3% for certain real property purchases exceeding $2 million.
This would apply to both residential and potentially commercial sales, though it remains unclear if the final legislation will include commercial properties
