- What is RecordRadar?
-
RecordRadar, offered by the Tulsa County Clerk’s Office, is designed to notify a citizen by email when a document is recorded.
- Is there a fee to subscribe?
-
No. RecordRadar is free of charge.
- How does the RecordRadar work?
-
A login is created through the sign-up page. You will then register your name and parcel numbers and provide an active email address. Those with variations in their name will register each name. Thereafter, if a document is filed in the Tulsa County Clerk’s Office associated to a registered name or parcel number, an email will be sent to the provided email address automatically.
- My name is very common; will I receive alerts intended for someone else?
-
It is possible to receive alerts for other citizens with the same registered name as you. Double-checking the parcel number on the notification with your parcel number will determine whether the notification is intended for you.
- My name is spelled differently on occasion; how would I enter it?
-
Register all variations of your name. Notifications only work if the spelling on the document matches what you registered.
- How long will my name or parcel stay on the RecordRadar notification list?
-
Your name(s) will remain on the notification list indefinitely. However, the contents are always able to be edited once you’re logged in.
- What documents will I be notified about RecordRadar?
-
You will be notified of documents bearing your name(s) or parcel number recorded after registration with the RecordRadar. This could include deeds, liens, mortgages, release of mortgages, and other miscellaneous documents. To access documents that have been filed prior to registration, use our LOCCAT system online or visit us in the office.
- What information is provided in a RecordRadar alert email?
-

- I received an alert, what does the type of document mean?
-
The Tulsa County Clerk’s Office acts as a repository and is prohibited from giving legal advice. Consulting a licensed attorney may be in your best interest.
