Deeds are official contracts transferring property ownership.
According to Utah law, no transfer or sale of property is valid unless it is recorded by the county recorder. Deeds include the names of buyer and seller, a legal description of the property, and specify the terms of the transfer. All documents in this series relate to property in western or north central Washington County, which includes Enterprise, Pine Valley, Ivins, Gunlock, Santa Clara, and Pinto. The records include not only deeds, but a wide variety of documents relating to real estate. They also include a few miscellaneous records.
