How to record a document in Erath County, Texas

3. Submit by mail to Erath County Clerk at Erath County Clerk, 100 W. Washington St., Stephenville, TX 76401 (alternate land-records location: Annex III, 222 E. College St., Stephenville, TX 76401).
4. Pay the recording fee ($25.00 (includes all surcharges per LGC 118.011) - per secondary source citing official Land Record Fees PDF (effective Jan 1, 2024); PDF content could not be machine-parsed to independently confirm exact line items first / $4.00 per additional page (per secondary source citing same official PDF) add'l).

How Jurably helps in Erath County

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 Erath County 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.
