Located at PO Box 370, Crockett Texas 75835 , the Houston County Recorder of Deeds is a centralized office for recording, indexing, and storing Houston public records. It keeps deeds for accuracy and continuity in property transitions. Land and real estate must have clear documents indicating their ownership. At the Houston County Recorder of Deeds office, the clerks in charge ensure these documents remain both safe and accessible to the right people.

Recording fees

The recording of deeds fees differ based on the number of pages and names; the introductory rate for a one-page stands at $26 . Any subsequent or additional pages attract an extra $4. After the fifth in the list, any different name attracts 26 cents for indexing. Now it’s easy to do the math if you are going to pursue any of these.

Other related charges are as follows:

  • Any errors made in the first-page title attracts a double fee which means $29 times two
  • Failing to correctly indicate the grantee’s address attracts a penalty of $25. If this is lesser than the filling price, they will double the filing fee to be paid as a penalty.
  • Copy per page goes at $1 . A certified copy, however, is $4 per document in addition to regular copy fees

Fees may change, and this comes without announcement. For most recent costs, reach out to the Houston County Clerk directly: call 936-544-3255 or fax 936-544-1954 .
