Utah Quitclaim Deed

About the Wasatch County Recorder

Wasatch County is home to the Jordanelle Reservoir and Deer Valley Resort, and has seen some of the state's highest population growth rates in recent years as the Park City area expands. Whichever part of the county your property sits in, the fastest way through this office is a deed that's already correctly formatted — anything missing tends to get returned rather than fixed on the spot.

Cities and Communities Served

Recording jurisdiction runs countywide, not by city limits — if the property sits anywhere within Wasatch County, this is the office that will accept the deed. That includes:

Incorporated cities: Heber City, Midway, and Park City.

Incorporated towns: Charleston, Daniel, Hideout, Independence, Interlaken, and Wallsburg.

Unincorporated communities: Center Creek, Soldier Summit, and Timber Lakes.

Park City straddles the Wasatch/Summit County line — confirm which county's recorder applies before you file. A portion of the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation also extends into the county.

Office Details

Address: 25 North Main St.
Heber City, UT 84032

Phone: (435) 657-3210

Hours: Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM (closed holidays; half-day on County Fair Day, first Friday in August)

Recording Fee: Set by state statute (Utah Code § 17-71-407), not by Wasatch County individually — a flat amount per document, not a percentage of the property's value. The legislature changed this rate as recently as May 2026, so don't rely on an old printed schedule; the office linked below can give you the current figure.

E-recording: Simplifile e-recording is listed as available for the county.

Good to know before you go: The office won't provide forms, help you fill them out, or search records for you — come with a document already prepared, e.g. by a title company or attorney.

Filing Steps for This County

  1. Prepare Your Document: Make sure your deed meets Utah's formatting and content requirements — be aware that a free, generic template is the single biggest reason deeds come back rejected.

  3. Record It: File in person at the Wasatch 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.
