County Recorder's Office

Print PDF

The Fulton County Recorder's Office is the official land records office for all real estate located in the county. The Recorder's primary responsibility is the accurate and timely maintenance and indexing of titles for Fulton County land.

In addition, we also record public record UCC's (Uniform Commercial Codes), military discharges, and other contracts which may require public recording. The Recorder's staff is ready to assist you in a professional and timely manner. Please remember that we are not attorneys and do not dispense legal advice. The Fulton County Recorder's Office has three computer work stations available for the public without charge. The computer document index goes back to 1985 with document images from 1997 to the present. Book records are available back to 1824, when the county was founded.
