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 loan from one holder to another, and a release shows that a loan was paid off and the lien lifted from the property.
Loving County has 216 assignment and release records, made up of 19 assignment documents and 197 release documents, with no other document types. Assignments were recorded from May 5, 2022, to May 29, 2025, and releases from March 2, 2021, to August 12, 2025.
For property research, these records help confirm whether earlier loans on a parcel have been satisfied and trace how a mortgage moved between lenders. That is useful before a sale, refinance or title review in one of Texas's least populated counties.
How to Search Loving County, TX Property Records
Loving County keeps its property records in a small number of offices. The county clerk records deeds, mortgages and related documents, and the appraisal district maintains assessment data for the county's 1,833 parcels, which include ownership, parcel type and assessment details for the 2024 assessment year.
The Texas Comptroller publishes a Texas county appraisal district directory that lists contact details for the office serving Loving County, and its Texas property tax resource page explains how appraisals, exemptions and tax bills work statewide.

Start with the parcel or owner, confirm the legal description, and then look for the deed that transferred it. If a document you expect is missing, ask the clerk's office to search by date range.
