Automated City Register Information System
Notice of Recorded Document
Purpose
The ACRIS Notice of Recorded Document System is a registration program that is intended to provide notice to property owners when deeds, mortgages and deed- or mortgage related documents affecting an ownership interest in real property, have been recorded against a single property in the five boroughs of New York City. In addition to property owners and their agents (including child, spouse or domestic partner of owner if they are a designee), the managing agent, the property owner’s attorney, the lienor, or executors/administrators of the estate of the owner or lienor of the property may register under this program. Owners of cooperative apartments and timeshare units may NOT want to register for notification as these properties do not have unique borough, block and lot identifiers and the registrant would receive notifications affecting the entire building rather than for the particular unit of interest.

The Department of Finance assumes no liability for failure to provide the requested notice of recorded documents with respect to property for which you are registering to receive notification. The City of New York, including the Department of Finance and the Richmond County Clerk, assumes no liability for fulfilling their legal duty to record documents, even if those documents are in some instances later determined to be erroneous, fraudulent or invalid.

Choose to have your notification sent by either email or SMS by selecting the appropriate button below. For email notification, please enter a valid email address and add acrisnrd@finance.nyc.gov to your safe senders list to ensure you receive e-mail confirmation and notices. For SMS notification enter your full phone number and cell phone carrier domain. If you are not sure of your cell phone carrier’s domain, please contact your cell phone provider and ask for the address of their SMS Gateway. For example, a Verizon subscriber whose phone number is 555-555-5555 would enter 5555555555@vtext.com while an AT&T subscriber whose phone number is 555-555-5555 would enter 5555555555@txt.att.net. Depending on your cell phone plan, you could be charged additional fees.

Click “Submit” to submit your request or click “Cancel” to clear all information entered on this page.


After clicking “Submit” a new screen will open and you will receive an automatically generated email. Both the new screen and the automatically generated email will confirm the registration details you entered and that you elected to receive (no longer receive) email notices whenever documents are recorded against the entered Borough, Block and Lot (BBL).

If you do not receive this email within 15 minutes, please verify that you entered the correct email address (per the confirmation screen). If the email address that you entered is incorrect, you should re-register using the correct email address. If you had used the correct email address, please check your junk mail as the antispam and email filtering you may be running can potentially cause these emails to arrive in your junk email folder. To prevent future email notices from doing the same, please add the email address acrisnrd@finance.nyc.gov to your safe senders list. If the email address that you entered is correct and the email is not in your junk email folder, you should call 311.
