LA County title basics for Hawthorne
Los Angeles County charges a documentary transfer tax of $1.10 per $1,000 of sales price at recording. In most South Bay and Westside transactions the seller customarily pays for the owner's title insurance policy and the buyer pays for the lender's policy, though this is negotiable and can vary by contract. A standard preliminary title report (prelim) is typically back within 2–4 business days of opening the order, which is why opening title early is the single best way to keep escrow on track.
