How a Iowa closing works
Iowa handles title differently from every other state: there is no conventional title insurance — title work runs on abstracts and attorney title opinions (with Iowa Title Guaranty available). It works fine for cash sales; it just means the title step involves an attorney.
Iowa’s transfer tax is about $1.60 per $1,000 of the price (with the first $500 exempt) — modest, and paid by the seller.
