Errors and Omissions

This is a working index and may contain errors and omissions due to errors in the preparation of the original document or in the indexing.  It is recommended to search several different ways for each property, such as by both a "quick search" (party name), and an "advanced search," (combination of legal description and other pertinent information).

Images

The images are authentic reproductions of the actual document and the quality is usually good.  However, blue or light-colored ink used on original documents will not reproduce well.  A few older documents may be illegible since there was no requirement for legibility until 1997.

Wall dates

The general rule is that the grantor-grantee (or party) index, tract index, and image are all available no later than the next working day after being recorded.

There are occasional exceptions due to equipment failures.
