Nebraska Foreclosure Law, Transfer Taxes & Closing Cost Rules

Under the Nebraska Trust Deeds Act, lenders use a Trust Deed that permits non-judicial trustee sale in approximately 90 to 120 days with no post-sale redemption right. Nebraska imposes no mortgage recording tax (only a $2.25 per $1,000 documentary stamp tax paid by the seller upon deed transfer).
