The County Clerk, Sheriff, First District Court, and Assessor each maintain their own records. This guide covers how to find and request Cache County public records from each office, including online tools, in-person visits, and written GRAMA requests under Utah law.

Cache County Recorder and CORE System

The Cache County Recorder maintains property records dating back to the 1850s. The office uses the Cache Online Records Express (CORE) system, which provides online access to property records, marriage licenses, and business license information. Basic searches on CORE are free. Document images may require payment depending on the type of record and how far back it goes.

Cache County has a mix of residential, agricultural, vacation, and secondary home properties, so the Recorder's office handles a wide variety of deed and transfer types. Deeds, mortgages, liens, leases, and plats are all on file. Recording can be done in person at 179 North Main Street, Suite 201, Logan, or by mail. The statewide recording fee schedule applies: $40.00 for the first page with up to 10 property descriptions, and $2.00 for each additional description. Certified copies are $5.00 plus $1.00 per page.

Results include assessed values, property characteristics, and tax history. This is a quick way to confirm ownership or look up assessed value without visiting an office in person.

The Assessor handles primary residence exemption applications and other property tax relief programs. Agricultural land exemptions are also processed through this office given the significant amount of farmland in Cache County. For the underlying recorded documents, visit the Recorder's office.
