Status of Recorded Documents

Welcome to the Macomb County Register of Deeds "Status of Recorded Documents" page that shows the dates documents have been processed by the Register of Deeds office.

Documents received as of the Certification Date of March 12, 2010 were recorded by the Macomb County Register of Deeds and are searchable in the Official Registry. Documents received after the above date will be searchable in the Electronic Entry Book until they are either officially recorded or rejected for not meeting recording requirements.

Note: As documents are recorded, they are transferred from the Electronic Entry Book into the Official Registry. It is possible that some documents will be searchable in the Official Registry after the certification date thanks to our efficient staff.

Today's Date :	March 18, 2010

Certification Date:	March 12, 2010

Recording Status Time Line

Electronic Entry Book and Official Registry Use

To perform a property history search:

1. Step One -- Search the Electronic Entry Book from today's date backwards until you get to the certification date. This will give you all documents received by the Register of Deeds from the present back through the inception of the Entry Book (unless the document has been already recorded in the Official Registry by our efficient staff).

2. Step Two -- Search the Official Registry. This will give you all of the documents recorded by the Register of Deeds from the certification date and earlier.

Note: All documents filed at the Register of Deeds are searchable in the Electronic Entry Book upon receipt. As they are recorded they are moved from the Electronic Entry Book to the Official Registry. It is possible that some documents will be searchable in the Official Registry the same date as received into the Electronic Entry Book due to the efficiency of the Register of Deeds staff.

After the recording date, the Electronic Entry Book contains only rejected documents that were not recorded. As a protection against improper rejection, the Electronic Entry Book is searchable online for six months. After six months, the information is then removed from the Entry Book, archived on microfilm, and kept permanently in the Register of Deeds office. Entry Book search requests for documents filed more than six months ago may be made in writing to the Register of Deeds office or by calling 586-469-7953.
