Recording a Deed or Document in Placer, CA

Can you e-record in Placer?

Placer records documents submitted by mail or in person. Jurably handles this on the paper rail — we prepare, notarize, mail, and track your document to a recorded instrument number.

How to record a document in Placer, California

1. Prepare the document so it meets Placer formatting rules (legal description, grantee address, signature block, and the blank margin the recorder reserves for its stamp).
2. Notarize it if the instrument requires acknowledgment — most deeds and affidavits do.
3. Submit by mail to Placer County Clerk-Recorder's Office at Placer County Clerk-Recorder's Office, 3715 Atherton Rd, Rocklin, CA 95765.
4. Pay the recording fee ($14.00 (standard first page, 8.5x11) first / $3.00 per additional standard page; $3.00 non-conforming-page surcharge per page if any page is not 8.5x11 or has attachments (staples/tape/glue) add'l (+$75.00 SB2 Building Homes and Jobs Act fee on real estate instruments (unless exempt), capped at $225 per transaction)).
5. Receive the recorded instrument back with its book/page or instrument number as proof of record.

How Jurably helps in Placer

Jurably isn’t a deed-filing desk — it’s how real-estate investors get the important paperwork done. If you’re under contract on a Placer property, we file a memorandum of contract to secure your equitable interest so the seller can’t sell out from under you. Need it notarized first? We handle online notarization or send a mobile notary to your signer. Then we record it — by certified mail on the paper rail — and return the recorded instrument. It’s a self-help filing service, not legal advice.
