ATG Title provides title insurance, escrow, and real estate closing services throughout the City of Alexandria, Virginia. As an independent city with its own Circuit Court land records, Alexandria has recording procedures distinct from the surrounding counties — and our Alexandria team handles them every day, from Old Town rowhouses to new construction in Potomac Yard. We respond within one hour on every active file.
Alexandria is one of Virginia’s oldest cities and one of the most active residential real estate markets in Northern Virginia. The market spans the historic townhomes of Old Town, the walkable neighborhoods of Del Ray and Rosemont, the mixed-use development of Carlyle and the Eisenhower Valley, and the newer construction along Potomac Yard near the Metro. Because Alexandria is an independent city, deeds and deeds of trust record with the City of Alexandria Circuit Court rather than a county courthouse — a distinction that matters for accurate recording and timing.
ATG Title serves buyers, sellers, lenders, and real estate professionals throughout the city and the adjacent Mount Vernon and Franconia corridors in Fairfax County. As the buyer or seller, you choose your own title company — it is your decision, not your lender’s or your agent’s.
In Alexandria, the buyer (grantee) pays a state recordation tax of $0.25 per $100 plus a city recordation tax of $0.0833 per $100. The seller (grantor) pays the state grantor’s tax of $0.50 per $500, plus the Northern Virginia regional congestion fee where it applies. ATG Title provides an itemized fee quote before your contract date.
ATG Title serves all of Alexandria by appointment and through mobile and remote online (RON) closings — we come to you anywhere in the city. Our staffed offices are in Haymarket (HQ), Rockville, Annapolis, and Fredericksburg. Call (703) 934-2100 to arrange an Alexandria closing.
Yes. ATG Title offers mobile closings, mail-away closings, and remote online notarization (RON) where the jurisdiction and lender allow.
