Before Submitting a Document for Recording

County Recorder offices have specific requirements for documents presented for recording. Depending on the document and county, requirements may include:

• Original signatures
• Proper notarization or acknowledgment
• Return-address information
• Assessor’s Parcel Number
• Transfer tax information
• Preliminary Change of Ownership Report
• Legible text, signatures, notary seals, and attachments

The County Recorder makes the final determination as to whether a document is acceptable for recording.

The Document Diva is not a law firm and does not prepare legal documents or provide legal advice. Documents submitted for recording should be complete and ready for filing.
