Types of Property Records in Greer County
Land records filed with the Greer County Clerk cover the full range of real estate transactions. Warranty deeds are the most common type. They transfer ownership and include the seller's guarantee of clear title. Quitclaim deeds transfer whatever interest the grantor holds, without any warranty. Both types go into the permanent county record when property changes hands.
Mortgages and deeds of trust create liens on property to secure loans. Releases clear those liens once the debt is paid. Oil and gas leases are a significant part of the Greer County index. Southwest Oklahoma has active mineral development, and these leases are public record once filed. Mineral deeds transfer subsurface rights apart from surface ownership, which is a standard arrangement in Oklahoma. Tax liens from the county, state, or federal government appear in the index when recorded against a property owner. Judgment liens also attach to real estate when filed with the clerk.
A book list is available through the online portal for those doing detailed research. For marriage, divorce, and probate records, contact the Greer County Court Clerk separately. Those documents are part of the court system, not the land records office.
Recording Fees for Greer County Property Records
Oklahoma recording fees are set by state law. Under Title 28 Section 32, updated effective November 1, 2024, the fee for the first page of any deed, mortgage, or other recorded instrument is $8.00. Each additional page costs $2.00. A records management and preservation fee of $10.00 applies per instrument. Documents that do not meet formatting requirements are charged as non-conforming at $25.00 for the first page and $10.00 for each additional page.
Senate Bill 57, also effective November 1, 2024, requires all documents to have a 2-inch top margin and 1-inch margins on all other sides. Documents that do not meet those specs are still accepted but recorded at the non-conforming rate. Oklahoma also collects a documentary stamp tax of $0.75 per $500 of consideration under Title 68 Section 3201. On a $150,000 transaction, that comes to $225 in stamp tax paid at the time of recording. Photographic copies of recorded documents are $1.00 per page. Certified copies cost an additional $1.00 per page on top of the copy fee.
