Deeds and land records are recorded at the town or county land records office where the land is located. Some offices provide an online access to land records. Some provide this service free of charge; others may charge a fee. If there is no online searching available, you can contact the register of deeds office.

Of course, many land records are not available online and many search sites are difficult to use for some people who rarely do land research. You can also visit the land records office in your jurisdiction and the staff will show you how to locate your deed.

In Scotland you can search the Land Registry for Scotland on and offline, this is the same for England and Wales

If you lost a registered deed to the property will that cause a problem?

Generally, a lost deed will not cause a problem as long as the deed was filed in the land records office. A deed is executed to transfer ownership of property to the grantee. Recording the deed in the land records provides permanent proof of the transfer of ownership. In a subsequent sale of the property the original deed does not have to be produced since the title will be checked in the land records. The recorded copy of the deed will suffice as proof of ownership. Once a deed has been recorded you can obtain a copy for a nominal fee. The only time a lost deed can cause a problem is when it was not recorded. See link.How_long_is_an_unrecorded_deed_valid
