Bulletin: NY000292
Effective November 1, 2006 the rate of mortgage recording taxes imposed on the recording of mortgages on real property located on Schoharie County will be $1.00 per $100.00 secured by the mortgage.
Form MT-15
Where mortgaged property lies entirely within the State of New York but in more that one locality and those localities impose differing rates of mortgage tax, a tax-payer may either pay the entire mortgage tax based upon the highest rate or file Form MT-15.
Form MT-15 provides for an apportionment of the tax based upon the relative assessed value of the real property encumbered by the mortgage. The apportioned tax must be paid to the recording officer where the mortgage is first presented for recording.
