DuPage County Recorder

Join the Recorder's Office today at a FREE Senior Expo held at the DuPage County Complex and hear about the programs the Recorder's Office offers property owners of DuPage!

The Recorder’s Office is thankful to the Woodridge Public Library, who facilitated a booth for us to speak to the public of Woodridge concerning our Property Fraud Alert Program with over 20 new participants enrolled.

The free Property Fraud Alert program is your first line of defense in case of Property Theft or Property Liens. Our office will alert you immediately when any document is recorded on your property, and work with you, the Sheriff’s Office and the State’s Attorney if the document was not recorded by you.

Reach out to sign up today by calling (630) 407-5400 or visiting our website: https://www.dupagecounty.gov/elected_officials/recorder/property_fraud_alert.php

The DuPage County Recorder’s Office wishes you a Happy Father’s Day.

On this day, we appreciate the fathers, grandparents, brothers, friends and found family that have been a supportive shoulder when we needed it most. They laugh with us, cry with us, and push us to be better versions of ourselves; and for that we are thankful.

The DuPage County Recorder's Office will be closed June 19th in honor of Juneteenth.

Juneteenth honors not just emancipation, but the resilience, culture, and achievements of Black Americans across DuPage and the United States.

Today the DuPage County Recorder’s Office had the pleasure of attending the DuPage County Community Services Senior Resource Fair.

Over 30 homeowners were able to sign up for our Property Fraud Alert program, and the veterans who visited our table received Veterans Honor Recognition Rewards for their service to our country.

Our office thanks Community Resources for facilitating this event, connecting the public of DuPage to resources that service them.

Today the DuPage County Recorder’s Office held our Second Annual Flag Day Ceremony.

Our office would like to thank the participants, attendees, Facilities, VAC, & Recorder staff, elected officials, veterans, and our partnership with Illinois Humanities who made this event possible.

Whether it was the inspiring singing of the Anthem, the conviction felt during the speakers’ addresses, or the excitement of community members fostering new friendships, this Flag Day made a lasting impact on all of us here at the Recorder’s Office and we wish you all a Happy Flag Day!

Only one day left until the Recorder's Second Annual Flag Day Ceremony!

Join us for a FREE day of learning more about the Declaration of Independence, connecting with your community and having fun!
This is a once in a lifetime chance to have your voice archived in the Library of Congress for generations to come.

Today the DuPage County Recorder's Office recovered a piece of DuPage County history.

After being absent for an estimated 25–30 years, Plat Book 2 has finally returned to the DuPage County Recorder’s Office. This remarkable volume documents some of the earliest development and subdivision activity in DuPage County and is an important part of our county’s historical record. We understand the book was loaned to the Wheaton Historic Preservation Council by former Recorder Rick Carney many years ago and was never returned.

We are grateful to court-appointed Receiver Nancy Flannery, whose commitment to preserving history helped make the book’s return possible. Her efforts ensured this invaluable piece of DuPage County’s history could be restored to its rightful home.

The Recorder’s Office is proud to serve as the keeper of DuPage County’s land records, and we are thrilled to welcome Plat Book 2 back where it belongs. As you can see in some of the photos, the old plat book has sustained significant wear & tear, and our office continues to work towards the goal of preservation and digitization of all of our books.

Happy Pride Month from the DuPage Recorder’s Office!

This month, we celebrate the diversity, strength, and contributions of the LGBTQ+ community. We remain committed to serving every resident with dignity, respect, and professionalism.

Pride is a reminder that our communities are strongest when everyone feels seen, valued and welcome.
