A Louisiana recording rule

Check the deed-recording fee for your sale

The basic fee is $100 for a document of one to five pages

Louisiana law sets a $100 basic fee to record a document of one to five pages. Longer documents, extra indexed names, and other services can add charges. This is the basic recording fee, not a total for every title or closing cost. Ask the Terrebonne Parish Clerk of Court’s Recording department or the closing professional to confirm the charge for the actual deed.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Louisiana Revised Statutes § 13:844 — recording fees ↗
