How transfer tax differs from estate tax
A real estate transfer tax is charged at closing when property changes hands — it is unrelated to estate or inheritance tax. Wyoming's estate/inheritance tax rules are covered by the Wyoming no-tax status, and the federal estate tax by the federal calculator.
