How to search by address or PINMortgages & Releases
A paid-off mortgage should have a recorded release. Our title report checks the Clerk's index for mortgages on the PIN and whether each one was released.
See the Property Title ReportLiens & Judgments
Mechanics liens, tax liens, condo association liens, judgments and lis pendens can all cloud a title. We search for them and summarize what still looks open.

Frequently asked questions
Is Property Deeds USA the Cook County Clerk or Recorder of Deeds?
No. Property Deeds USA is a private, independent company. We are not affiliated with Cook County, the Cook County Clerk, the Assessor or the City of Chicago.
Is the deed history really free?
Yes. The deed history by address uses public Cook County Assessor sales data and is free to look up, with no account needed.
Can I get a copy of a deed myself?
Yes. You can get a non-certified copy yourself from the Cook County Clerk for $5 per document. We save you the time: we find the right document, explain it, and deliver it.
Do you provide certified copies?
No. We do not provide certified copies. Certified copies are only available from the Cook County Clerk.
Why does the owner show as a bank or trust number?
In Illinois many homes are held in a land trust; the deed names a bank as trustee and the real beneficiary isn't public.
How current is the data?
Sales data from the Cook County Assessor is updated monthly, so the latest records are usually about 2–3 months old. Mortgages, releases and liens are not included in the free history.
Is this title insurance or legal advice?
No. Our reports summarize public records. They are not title insurance, a title commitment or a legal opinion.
