A property owner in Ohio transfers property to his LLC for no consideration. The owner is the sole member of the LLC. Regarding the conveyance fee, which statement is MOST accurate?

Correct Answer

B) The transfer may be exempt if it is a transfer to an entity where the grantor holds 100% ownership and no consideration is paid

Under ORC §319.54(G)(3), certain transfers without consideration may be exempt from the conveyance fee. A transfer from an individual to their wholly-owned LLC, where no monetary consideration is exchanged, may qualify as an exempt transfer under the statutory exemptions for transfers between related entities.

Answer Options
A
The full conveyance fee applies because any transfer of title triggers the fee
B
The transfer may be exempt if it is a transfer to an entity where the grantor holds 100% ownership and no consideration is paid
C
The transfer is subject to double the normal conveyance fee as a penalty for avoiding taxation
D
Only the county permissive fee applies; the state fee is waived
