Pooler Deed Recording Process

To record a deed covering Pooler property, submit it to the Chatham County Clerk of Superior Court. All documents must comply with O.C.G.A. 44-2-14.

You must file a PT-61 form with any warranty or quitclaim deed. Fill it out at gsccca.org before you come to the courthouse.

Electronic filing through efile.gsccca.org is much faster, usually 2-3 business days. Traditional mail can take up to 4 weeks.

Documents come back if the PT-61 is missing, a witness signature is absent, or the notary seal is not on the deed.

Once recorded, the clerk stamps the document with the date and time and assigns a book and page number. That reference identifies the deed in the public record going forward.

If mailing, send to: 133 Montgomery Street 3rd Floor Room 304, Savannah, GA 31401. Call (912) 434-8920 ahead of time to confirm requirements for your specific document type.
