Local to Tysons

Fairfax County’s downtown, mostly high-rise and mostly new.

Tysons is the commercial heart of Fairfax County, an edge city of about 30,000 residents that is rapidly becoming a walkable downtown around four Silver Line Metro stations. It runs from the two regional malls, Tysons Corner Center and Tysons Galleria, to the new high-rise condominium towers at the Boro, Scotts Run, and Tysons Central.

Here is what shapes most Tysons closings: the residential market here is largely high-rise condominiums, many of them newly built, so a closing usually turns on the condominium association resale certificate, the public offering statement for new construction, and the building documents recorded against the unit. Tysons is unincorporated Fairfax County, so deeds record with the Fairfax Circuit Court in the City of Fairfax. We handle the condominium paperwork and the filing. If you are buying, our guide to what happens at a Virginia closing and our first-time home buyer guide walk through each step.

Recording and policy

Closing costs in Tysons

What the area adds to your closing.

Tysons sits inside the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority, so a sale here carries two regional recordation fees that most of Virginia does not. The buyer generally pays the state recordation tax, and the seller, as grantor, pays the grantor’s tax plus those two Northern Virginia fees.

The exact amount depends on your sale price and the deed. We calculate the precise numbers for your transaction and lay them out before closing. For the bigger picture, see our guide to closing costs in Virginia.

Recording charges on a Tysons sale

  • State recordation tax: $0.25 per $100 (Va. Code 58.1-801), usually the buyer
  • Local recordation tax: about $0.083 per $100, one third of the state tax (Va. Code 58.1-814)
  • Grantor's tax: $0.50 per $500 (Va. Code 58.1-802), the seller
  • WMATA Capital Fee: $0.10 per $100 (Va. Code 58.1-802.3), Northern Virginia
  • Regional Congestion Relief Fee: $0.10 per $100 (Va. Code 58.1-802.4), Northern Virginia

Sources: Code of Virginia, Title 58.1, Chapter 8, and the Virginia Department of Taxation. This is general information, not tax or legal advice, and the exact amount depends on your transaction.

Yes. We close across Tysons, from the high-rise condos by the four Metro stations to the Boro, Scotts Run, and the surrounding neighborhoods, for buyers, sellers, and lenders, residential and commercial.

Where do Tysons deeds get recorded?

Can you handle a new unit from a builder at the Boro or Scotts Run?

Yes. New construction comes with a public offering statement and builder addenda, and we handle those and the unit deed as part of the closing.
