Nassau County Clerk Update

Due to the implementation of the Department of Assessment’s Tax Map certification requirement, effective Wednesday, January 14, 2015, all deeds, mortgages, satisfactions, assignments, and consolidations must have their Section, Block and Lot verified with the Department of Assessment prior to presenting the instrument for recording in the Clerk’s office. Instruments presented without the Department of Assessment certification page cannot be accepted for recording.

 

As of today, Monday, January 12, 2015, we do not know what fee with be charged for tax map verification, but it has been inferred that is may be $75.00 per instrument.  We also do not know who the fee is to be made payable or if there is a grace period.

 

As soon as we hear any updates, we will follow up with another correspondence.

 

Thank you,

Karen Keating and Joe Intravaia
