Utah Quitclaim Deed

About the Iron County Recorder

Iron County has been among Utah's faster-growing counties in recent years, anchored by Cedar City and Southern Utah University. No matter where in the county you're filing from, showing up with a properly formatted deed saves a second trip — this office typically hands back anything that's missing something rather than fixing it for you.

Incorporated towns: Brian Head, Kanarraville, and Paragonah.

Unincorporated communities: Beryl, Hamiltons Fort, Beryl Junction, Modena, Newcastle, and Summit.

Filing Steps for This County

  1. Prepare Your Document: Make sure your deed meets Utah's formatting and content requirements first. Be aware: a free, generic template is the most common cause of a rejected deed.
  2. Get It Notarized: Have the document acknowledged before a Utah notary public. No notary nearby in Parowan? Utah allows remote online notarization — you can notarize your Iron County deed online instead.
  3. Record It: File in person at the Iron County's office, or by mail; call to confirm current mail-in and e-recording options.
  4. Pay the Recording Fee: A flat per-document amount set by state statute (Utah Code § 17-71-407), not a percentage of the property's value — call or check the office's website above for the current figure.
  5. Keep Your Receipt: Your recorded document (or a certified copy) is your proof of filing.
