Don’t be fooled by national service companies who advertise they
will provide homeowners with a certified copy of their deed for a
fee. Recently, Rusk County, Wisconsin residents received letters
indicating State Record Retrieval Board of Milwaukee, Wisconsin will
provide the important certified copies of their deed for a cost of
$87.00
Fees for a copy of your property deed are governed by Wisconsin
State statute 59.43(2)(b) which are $2.00 for the first page, plus
$1 for each additional page. The certification fee per document copy
is $1.00. The number of pages per deed average one to two pages.
It is an easy process to obtain a copy of a deed from the register
of deeds. If you require a copy of your deed, contact the local
register of deeds of the county where your property is located for
information on how to obtain your copy at a reasonable rate. |
