Grafton County Recording Fees |
Payment is to be made at the time of recording. As of March 1, 2015 The Grafton County Registry of Deeds will be requiring 3 separate checks for recording documents. One check for recording fees, one check for LCHIP surcharge and one check for the DRA Real Estate Transfer Tax. All three checks should be made payable to Grafton County Registry of Deeds. The ability of the New Hampshire Department of Revenue to collect insufficient funds is the driving force behind this policy change. Maintaining the one check policy leaves the taxpayer of Grafton County responsible for any uncollected funds on returned checks for Real Estate Transfer Tax. Return postage to be added to Recording Charges for EACH document. Checks should be made payable to Grafton County Registry of Deeds. *** NO PERSONAL CHECKS ACCEPTED *** SURCHARGE ON DOCUMENTS $2 Surcharge is imposed on all documents including plans pursuant to NH RSA 478:17-j.
