Overview

Our objective as the Mariposa County Assessor and Recorder’s Office, is to provide reliable recording information and fair and equitable taxation of all property with the best and most courteous service to the public.

Typical land documents include deeds, leases, mining claims, subdivision maps, homestead declarations and records of survey.
