Does the Recorder's Office have blank forms available for purchase or use?

We do not have any forms available in the Recorder’s Office. Some office supply stores carry packages of blank forms, and you can contact title companies to get the appropriate forms to record.  Please refer to Idaho Code or Statutes for specific information needed for liens.

Will my property title be sent once my loan is paid off?

The Recorder’s Office does not send any titles or deeds once a loan is paid off, however, if a copy is needed of a title or deed once the document has been recorded, we can provide that.  The fee for a copy is $1.00 per page.  If a certified copy is needed, an additional $1.00 will be added to the total cost of the copies.

How does the Recorder's Office accept documents?

The Recorder’s Office accepts original documents for recording in three ways:

What are the hours of recording?
