The Assessment Office does not prepare deeds. You need to retain an attorney to have a deed prepared or modified. We cannot change, add or delete an owner's name from our records unless there is a recorded deed evidencing that change.
As a service to the taxpayers, the Town has made a diligent attempt to maintain and preserve deeds, some of which date back to the 1600’s.
Copies of deeds may be available and can be provided to the owner of the property ONLY for a fee of $.25 per page. Please note that we may or may not have some of the older historic deeds.
For all others, copies of deeds may be obtained through:
Westchester County Clerk's Office
Land Records Division
110 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.
White Plains, NY 10601
(914) 995-3080
