Welcome to the Belmont County Recorder’s website!
The primary responsibility of the County Recorder is to create a complete, accurate, and permanent record of every document pertaining to the conveyance and encumbrance of land within the county. These permanent land records are retained in archival form and made accessible to the public; I hope to make all county land records available online.
We are located on the second floor of the courthouse and open Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, excluding holidays. We stop recording documents at 4:00 pm.
It is truly an honor to serve you and Belmont County as your Recorder. My staff and I welcome the opportunity to assist you. Please feel free to contact the office should you have any questions.
