On January 1, 2010, it will be mandatory that all documents submitted to our Land Records Division  be accompanied by cover pages generated through the Property Records Electronic Portal (PREP), which will reduce the amount of time necessary to record and return Land Records to customers. It will also reduce the number of documents rejected for not conforming to statutory requirements.

The Land Records Division of the Office of the Westchester County Clerk records all documents pertaining to real property transactions occurring in the County of Westchester. The Land Records Division also processes New York State Mortgage Tax, New York State Transfer Gains Tax, Federal Tax liens, and is home to our Map Division. The public can visit the Land Records Division to look up a current mortgage or deed, and even research documents dating back to the colonial days of Westchester.
