Recording your Miami Dade County Lady Bird Deed
Deeds in Miami Dade County are recorded by the Miami-Dade County Clerk of the Court and Comptroller. The office accepts eRecording through Simplifile (eRecording portal), and paper recording is also available at the courthouse.
Under Fla. Stat. §28.24, the statutory recording fee is $10.00 for the first page plus $8.50 for each additional page. A typical single-page Lady Bird Deed costs $10 to record. Florida documentary stamp tax on the deed itself is set by Fla. Stat. §201.02; because a Lady Bird Deed is not a completed transfer during the grantor's lifetime, most clerks apply the minimum stamp of $0.70. Always confirm current fees with Miami Dade County before recording.
