Well-known for its feisty state motto, “Live Free or Die,” New Hampshire’s closing fee requirements are unsurprisingly straightforward. 

LCHIP Fee

One unique requirement imposed upon residential real estate transactions in New Hampshire is the Land and Community Heritage Investment Program (LCHIP) fee. This charge is automatically bundled into residential recording fees, and amounts to a modest $25 surcharge directed into a trust fund housed in the New Hampshire Department of Treasury. That fund supports grants awarded to entities and individuals preserving or revitalizing historic structures or promoting acts of land conservation.
