Utah Quitclaim Deed

About the Sanpete County Recorder

Sanpete County has one of Utah's strongest concentrations of 19th-century Mormon pioneer architecture, and Manti is home to a historic LDS temple built between 1877 and 1888. The office moves quickly when paperwork is in order, but a deed with something missing is more likely to get returned than corrected on the spot — worth double-checking before you go.

Filing Steps for This County

  1. Prepare Your Document: Make sure your deed meets Utah's formatting and content requirements — be aware that a generic free form is what trips up most rejected deeds.

  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.
