This guide explains how to access deeds, mortgages, liens, and other property documents in Alabama. 8 min read Alabama ## What's in Property Records Alabama property records include deeds, mortgages, liens, easements, plat maps, and other documents affecting real property. These records are public and maintained chronologically by recording date. ## Finding the Right Office Property records in Alabama are kept by the Probate Judge in each county. Contact the recorder's office in the county where the property is located. Records are county-specific—there's no statewide database. ## Search Methods Search Alabama property records by property address, parcel number, or owner name. Many Alabama counties offer online search access. In-person searches at the Probate Judge allow access to original documents. ## Obtaining Copies Request copies from the Probate Judge by providing the recording information—book/page or document number. Fees typically range from $15-50 per document. Specify if you need certified copies. ## Title Searches For comprehensive property research, consider a title search. Title searches examine the chain of ownership and all recorded encumbrances. Professional services ensure thorough Alabama property research. ## Processing Times In-person requests at Alabama recording offices typically provide same-day copies. Mail requests take 3-7 business days. Online ordering, where available, varies by county. ### Get a Free Quote for Alabama Let 1DocRetrieval handle your Alabama document retrieval needs.
