Transfer Stamp / Exempt Stamp

In May of 1987, the Village of Glenwood instituted a real estate tax. When this tax is paid by the seller of the property, a real estate transfer tax stamp is issued by the Village. This Stamp will be affixed to the deed of that property when it is recorded in the buyer's name by the county. No deed on the Village of Glenwood property can be recorded without this transfer stamp.
