Real Estate
Real estate documents can be accessed in the Recorder's office or the Iowa Land Records portal.
Each document is proofed for accuracy and chain of title. The document is then entered into the transfer record.
Plat and transfer records are maintained showing the ownership of all parcels of land for taxation purposes. Ownership and land records are maintained in the GIS office and may be viewed on the Beacon website.
