Thank you for your interest in the Salem County Clerk's Office Property Alert Service.


By signing up for this service, you are taking the first step in protecting your property. By registering, you are now able to track your property, and you will receive e-mail alerts immediately if a document with your name or property description is recorded in the Salem County Clerk's Office.

Unfortunately, property and mortgage fraud is a fast-growing crime in the United States. Unscrupulous individuals record fraudulent documents like fake deeds or liens against property owners.

Registration is FREE and simple. Follow steps at the Salem County Clerk's website for any type of land owned in Salem County, whether occupied or vacant. Share this information with friends or relatives who reside in Salem County so they can protect themselves from fraud too!

Congratulations on protecting your property, one of your most important assets.

We are happy to serve you!

Sincerely,

Dale A. Cross
Salem County Clerk
