Land records indicate the ownership of real property within the Town. When a property transfers ownership from one entity to another, the recording of that transaction is done in this office. Mortgages, financing statements, liens, attachments, releases of mortgages, and other related documents are filed with on the Land Records in the Town Clerk's Office.
To find the owner of a property where only the address is known, go to the Assessor’s office first, obtain the "Book and Page" where the transaction was recorded, and then come to the Town Clerks office for a copy of that deed. Some properties may be included in a subdivision map or other survey. To see if your property has been surveyed, come to the office to look at the index to maps and surveys.
Copies of deeds, mortgages, liens, etc., are $1 per page, with an additional $2 for certification. Copies of maps and surveys are available for $1 each when copied from Town Clerk book; for complete maps and surveys please visit the Building & Land Use Department.
Documents for recording should be presented between 8:00AM and 4:00PM. Fees for recording are set by State Statute. Recording fees are $60 for the first page of any document and $5 for each additional page of that document.
