A bank acquires an Ohio property through a mortgage foreclosure. The bank later sells the property for $180,000. Regarding conveyance fees for these two transactions, which statement is correct?

Correct Answer

A) The foreclosure transfer is exempt, but the bank's subsequent sale to a third party is subject to the conveyance fee

Under ORC §319.54(G)(3), a transfer pursuant to a court-ordered foreclosure (sheriff's sale) is typically exempt from the conveyance fee. However, when the bank subsequently sells the property to a third party in an arm's-length transaction, that sale is subject to the full conveyance fee.

Answer Options
A
The foreclosure transfer is exempt, but the bank's subsequent sale to a third party is subject to the conveyance fee
B
Both the foreclosure transfer and the subsequent sale are subject to the conveyance fee
C
Both transfers are exempt because the property went through foreclosure
D
The bank must pay double the conveyance fee on the sale to compensate for the foreclosure exemption
