Recorder's office offers a free service to help protect Knox County residents from potential property and mortgage fraud. The service is an opt-in program called PropertyCheck.

The Recorder’s office does not charge Knox County residents a fee to sign up for and use the service. Assistance is available for those who wish to sign up.
