Mortgages

In 2014 a law was passed to phase out the "Mortgage Registration Fee" or "Mortgage Registration Tax". On January 1, 2019 Kansas stopped collecting mortgage registration tax. All Kansas statutes regarding mortgage registration tax are repealed.

A cap on the RECORDING FEE ONLY was also set under Kansas HB 2643 in 2014. A Mortgage of $75,000.00 or less is eligible for a recording fee cap of $125.00 IF the Mortgage meets the following three (3) requirements:
1. MUST BE A SINGLE FAMILY HOME
2. MUST BE THE PRIMARY RESIDENCE OF THE MORTGAGOR
3. MORTGAGE AMOUNT MUST BE $75,000.00 OR LESS

 

These requirements must be provided as a notarized affidavit stating these facts. It will be the last page of the mortgage you are recording.

Margin Requirements for Documents

On all documents to be recorded, please provide the following margins:

FIRST PAGE: TOP= 2 1/2" MARGIN
BOTTOM: 1/2"MARGIN SIDES: 1/2" MARGIN

ADDITIONAL PAGES: TOP= 1" MARGIN

Our office will not refuse to record a document without these dimensions. However according to KSA 28-115, we may request an additional fee based on the per page fee of that doucument if sufficient room is not provided for our recording stamp.
Therefore, if you did not provide these margins, please include the additional fee.

Please call or email if you are unsure of the fees.
