Certified Deeds

A copy of your deed (for real estate transactions within Pinellas County) is available from the official records of Pinellas County.  A certified copy of a 1-page deed costs $3.00 from the Pinellas County Clerk of the Circuit Court's Office.   Please use the information on this page to find out how to locate and order a certified copy of your deed with ease.

You may search the Official Records of Pinellas County for a copy of your recorded deed, using guest access at the following web link: http://pubtitlet.co.pinellas.fl.us/mainmenux.jsp.   This service is free of charge using guest access.  Guest access is limited to 100 transactions per day.

Under Official Records, click on the link titled "Official Record Book/Page or Name Search" (highlighted in the picture above) to access the Official Records Entry Form. Enter the name that the deed is recorded under - typically this is the homeowner's name. Using the "Instrument Select" drop down box, you may select "Deed" to narrow your search of the Official Records documents to just deeds. You may enter a beginning date and an ending date to further limit your search to a specific time period. (These steps are illustrated in the picture below.)

Images of deeds are available online from 1990 through the present date. Images of deeds prior to 1990 are not available online. However, they may be ordered online, by email, by mail or in person. Uncertified copies can be provided via email, fax, U.S. Postal Service mail or in person. Certified copies can only be provided by U.S. Postal Service mail or in person.
