| Property FAQs |
Question 1 - I want to see everything
affecting my property. Can I see my property file?
We do not maintain property files. We deal with
recorded documents and everything is maintained by document number
and grantor-grantee name. You can usually trace ownership history
by viewing deeds in an official record search. There is no specific
county agency that would have all types of records (deeds, easements,
etc.) in one file per property. Title companies can be used
to search this type of information, if appropriate.

Question 2 - How can I find out if liens
are filed against me?
You may come into our office and do an official record
search under your name and find all the documents recorded in which
you were a grantor or grantee. Also search under any other names,
forms of your name or business names that the liens could be recorded
under. You may view the documents to determine which are liens and
which are releases of liens.

Question 3 - I had a lien against me and
I paid it off, but a release doesn't show up in your records. Can't
you fix your records?
Our records only reflect documents that other entities
have submitted for recordation. If you paid off a lien and no
release has been recorded, you must contact the authority or person
who placed the lien against you to get them to record a document to
release the lien.
