Community Preservation Act Fee Increase

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Fiscal Year 2020 budget included a provision aimed at increasing funds available to towns and cities through the Community Preservation Act (CPA). The new fee schedule is shown in the table below.

Fees

Recording fees are now the same whether you own Recorded Land or Registered Land. Most property is Recorded Land. If the document you wish to record refers to a “Book and Page” number, you probably have Recorded Land. If your document refers to a “Certificate of Title” number, you probably have Registered Land.

Please Note:

  • The Registry accepts only cash or checks for recording transactions
  • Please make all checks payable to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
  • Telephone numbers and addresses must be on all checks
  • Document recording fees must be in the exact amount and total due should be paid with one check or cash
