§ 27294 Recording Fee Endorsement

• •When you record a document (like a deed or contract), the recorder must write down the fee you paid on that document.
• •This rule makes sure everyone knows how much was paid to record the document.
• •It applies to all types of recorded papers, not just big or important ones.

You buy a house and sign the deed to transfer ownership.

When the county records the deed, they must write the fee you paid right on the deed itself. This way, anyone who looks at the deed later can see how much the recording cost.
