Property Registration Notarization and Recording in NYC
When property changes hands in New York City, the deed has to be signed correctly, notarized and recorded. We notarize the signatures and can record the documents for you through ACRIS.
Notarization from $25 · Recording quoted up front
Registering a property transfer has two parts that trip people up: the signature must be properly acknowledged before a notary, and the document must then be filed with the city. We handle the notarization by live video or in person, and our recording service files the deed through ACRIS so it is on the public record.
Documents involved

NotarEaseNYC is a notary service, not a law firm. We cannot draft your document, give legal advice, explain its legal effect, or choose the right form or certificate for you. Your document must be complete before the session, and everything must be typed, not handwritten. Whether a receiving agency or company accepts a remote online notarization is up to them, so confirm before you book if you are unsure.
