Recorder's Office
This Just In... 7 April 2022: Attorney General Todd Rokita warns Hoosiers of government imposter scams Special Announcement: Monroe County Recorder's Office will NOT be accepting electronic submissions on Tuesday, 12 April 2022, while we convert to another internal system. E-recording may resume as normal on Wednesday, 13 April. Monroe County Government Buildings and Offices are open to the public with face coverings recommended and encouraged. Credit Card Payment Notice: Beginning Monday, 3 May 2021, we will be unable to accept payment via credit or debit card. This is due to new and stringent regulations and significantly increased user fees. We expect this to be temporary, for only two to three months, while we explore new and suitable credit card solutions. We apologize for the inconvenience and the short notice, as we had been hoping, until the last moment, for an earlier resolution. Our schedule of fees (with all recording requirements) can be found here. Please note that Recording fees and Auditor's fees need to be on two separate checks. We also have these other methods available for submitting documents for recording:
As always, the public can access most of our documents at Doxpop.com. Businesses can record online with Simplifile and CSC eRecording. (CSC accepts only non-transfer documents at this time.) If your office has any concerns, please feel free to contact us. Stay well, and thank you. |
What Does the Monroe County Recorder Do?In 1816, the Office of County Recorder was the first local office created by the State of Indiana constitution. It is the primary duty of County Recorders to record instruments submitted for recording and maintain those records for perpetuity. A County Recorder processes and stores a range of documents, most related to real estate, that are submitted for recording. Documents must meet all necessary conditions. Please visit our "Fee Schedule" and “Recording Requirements” pages for more information.
