Lane County, Oregon Recording Fees
Recording a deed in Lane County costs about $82 and a mortgage about $152 (a 2-page deed (2 x $5 per-page fee + $11 A&T/OLIS + $60 Housing fee + $1 Housing implementation fee = $82) and a 16-page mortgage (16 x $5 + $11 + $60 + $1 = $152)), per the Lane County Clerk, Deeds and Records Division's fee schedule. Per Lane County Clerk's own published fee schedule: recording is charged strictly per page at $5.00/page (no distinct first-page rate; 'not all [component fees] are applicable to all documents'), plus a flat $11.00 A&T/OLIS fee, a $60.00 Housing fee and a $1.00 Housing Implementation fee per document, these Housing/A&T fees appear to be Oregon statewide statutory recording surcharges (ORS Chapter 205) rather than Lane-specific add-ons, though this could not be independently cross-checked against another Oregon county's published schedule within this session. A $20.00 non-standard-document fee applies for non-compliance with ORS 205.232/205.234/205.327.
