The deed should be recorded in the deed-book in the archives section of the hall of records or courthouse at the county seat of the county in which the property is located. A copy is usually available for a fee. jb

You should go to the land records office in your jurisdiction and request a certified copy of your deed. If you only need a copy, not a certified copy, check first to see if your local land records are available online. If so, you may be able to print a copy from home. In Massachusetts many of the county Registries of Deeds can be accessed online and copies can be printed of any recorded documents.

You cannot sell something you do not have proof of ownership of. If you do not have the deeds, what will you give to the person you sell it to?

What you need to do is prove ownership of your house, remake the deeds.

You can obtain a copy at the land records office in your jurisdiction as long as the deed was properly recorded at the time of your purchase.

How does one transfer a house deed or title to another family member?

You might try going to a local title company. Sometimes they are very helpful and they might be willing to type the new warranty deed for you for little or no charge. All that might be required is just signing a new deed. You will want to record it with public records. The title company definitely can help you with that. It usually does not cost much to have a deed recorded.

How do you you change the names on the deed of your house?

Changing names on deeds typically happens for one of several reasons including legal name changes, death, convenience or conveyance. If there is a mortgage, you will need permission from the lender. Any new deed with changed names changes ownership. The people currently named on the deed (grantor) will execute a new deed to the newly named people (grantee). The grantee(s) on the new deed are the new owners. Deeds should always be drafted by a professional. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly to correct it they can be corrected. As soon as a new deed is executed it should be recorded in the land records.

Is title to a house the same as a deed to it?

Not exactly. The person with title to a property is the person who legally owns it. A deed and a title are not the same thing. A deed is a legal document that transfers the title from one person to another.
