4. Pay the recording fee ($30 per document (covers first 50 pages) — SDCL 7-9-15 first / $2.00 per page after the first 50 pages; transfer fee $0.50 per $500 of value on deeds with consideration add'l (+Mortgage assignments $30/first 50 pages; Master deeds/leases $75/first 50 pages; mechanic's liens $30/first 50 pages)).

How Jurably helps in Jackson

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 Jackson 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.
