A general warranty deed is used to transfer an interest in real estate in Minnesota in most real estate transactions. A Minnesota warranty deed conveys real property with warranty covenants to the buyer. It requires an acknowledgement of the grantor's signature.
The primary responsibility of the County Recorder is to accept and maintain a permanent public repository of real estate records. Types of documents in the repository include deeds, mortgages, contracts for deed, mortgage satisfactions, foreclosure records, probate documents, and easements.
You may come into the Recorder's Office and look at the official plat, order a copy online by entering the name of the plat instead of the document number, search for the property on LandShark GIS, search/download the plat using LandShark online searching, or contact the Public Works Department at 651-213-8700. 5.
