Published June 23, 2026 · Last verified June 23, 2026

Ulster County land-record costs should be checked against the Clerk’s schedule before a document packet is finalized. Recorded documents include deeds, mortgages, assignments, powers of attorney, and satisfactions, with records available from 1685 to the present. Recording and indexing at $45 for the county-generated cover sheet plus $5 per page. A $5 combined affidavit fee, RP-5217 charges of $125 or $250 depending on form boxes, transfer tax of $4 per $1,000 or fraction of consideration, and mortgage tax of 75 cents per $100 or fraction of debt.

Page count and document type drive the estimate.

Separate what this record proves from the next permit, tax, title, inspection, or court question.

For Ulster County, let the record lead. Use Ulster County Clerk: Land Record Fees for the public starting point, then keep the exact county clerk or land records, search date, and identifying number with the file. Keep the office name with the file too: Ulster County Clerk. If the answer affects money, title, access, a permit, a license, or a deadline, that name keeps the next call from starting cold. Ulster County county clerk or land records records are much easier to revisit when the source, date, and office route stay attached.
