Assignment and Release Records
Assignment and release records show what happens to a mortgage after it is recorded. An assignment documents the transfer of a mortgage from one lender or loan holder to another, and a release documents that a loan was paid off and the lien removed from the property.
Bibb County has 114,235 assignment and release records, made up of 28,370 assignment documents and 85,439 release documents, plus 426 other documents. Assignments were recorded from January 3, 2005, to August 29, 2025, and releases from July 30, 2004, to September 1, 2025.
These records help buyers, owners, and researchers confirm that earlier loans were satisfied, trace a mortgage as it passed between lenders, and spot liens that may still be open before a sale or refinance. Because the volume is large, the date ranges are useful for narrowing a search to a specific period in a property's history.
