| Recording of Real Estate Documents |
| The
Register of Deeds is the centralized keeper of real estate documents
for the county including the municipalities which transfer title and
most instruments affecting the title. The recording process is an official
method for documenting time and date an instrument is placed in to
the public record. Some of the
documents the Register of Deeds' records are deeds, mortgages, satisfactions,
easements, covenants, plats, contract for deeds and assignments.This vital function is the titles and history
to every piece of ground in the county. The Register of Deeds is required
to keep most of these records forever. We have land records dating
back to the late 1800s . |
| As the
Register of Deeds, however, we do not give any opinions as to where
a lot line is or the marketability of real estate titles. |
| The
Register of Deeds and staff cannot help you complete documents or forms or
give legal advice of any type. If you have questions about completing forms
or the proper method of transferring property, you should consult an attorney. |
