How to record a document in Franklin, New York

1. Prepare the document so it meets Franklin 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 Franklin County Clerk (Land Records Division) at Franklin County Clerk, 355 West Main Street, Suite 248, Malone, NY 12953.
4. Pay the recording fee ($50 first page (includes required computer-generated cover page) first / $5 per additional page add'l (+$0.50 per additional name over 2; $0.50 per cross-reference; RP-5217 equalization fee typically $125 (residential/agricultural) or $250 (other) applies to deeds)).
5. Receive the recorded instrument back with its book/page or instrument number as proof of record.

How Jurably helps in Franklin

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 Franklin 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.
