How to record a document in Marion, Mississippi

1. Prepare the document so it meets Marion 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 electronically through Simplifile, or by mail to Marion County Chancery Clerk at 250 Broad Street, Suite 2, Columbia, MS 39429 (no separate P.O. Box confirmed - office located in county courthouse).
4. Pay the recording fee ($26.00 (includes indexing for first 5 pages) first / $1.00 per page over 5 add'l (+$1.00 archive fee; $1.00 per additional section/subdivision lot for assignments/releases/amendments)).
5. Receive the recorded instrument back with its book/page or instrument number as proof of record.

How Jurably helps in Marion

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 Marion 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 — electronically through the county’s approved network — and return the recorded instrument. It’s a self-help filing service, not legal advice.
