Pennsylvania Consolidated & Unconsolidated Statutes
Chapter 81 - Private Transfer Fee Obligations
Section 8105 - Liability for violation


A person who records or enters into an agreement imposing a private transfer fee obligation in his favor after the effective date of this chapter may be liable for the following:
(1) the damages resulting from the imposition of the private transfer fee obligation on the transfer of an interest in the real property, including, but not limited to, the amount of any transfer fee paid by a party to the transfer; and
(2) the attorney fees, expenses and costs incurred by a party to the transfer or mortgagee of the real property to recover any private transfer fee paid or in connection with an action to quiet title.
Where an agent acts on behalf of a disclosed principal to record or secure a private transfer fee obligation, liability shall be assessed to the principal, rather than the agent.
