In Massachusetts, deeds are recorded at the county registry of deeds. The county registry is where all real estate documents (such as deeds, mortgages, and liens) are officially recorded. These records are public and provide legal notice of ownership and other property rights.

City or town halls may have certain records, such as local property tax assessments, but deeds must be recorded at the county level. The Massachusetts Board of Registration handles licensing and disciplinary actions for real estate professionals, but it does not record deeds.
