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, while a release documents that the loan was satisfied and the lien lifted from the property.
Washakie County has 3,153 assignment and release records. They include 66 assignment documents recorded from September 17, 2020, through September 3, 2025, and 3,087 release documents recorded from February 1, 1942, through September 3, 2025.
These records are useful in property research because they show who holds a mortgage and whether earlier loans have been paid off. Buyers, owners, and title researchers can use them to confirm that past liens were released and to trace a loan between lenders. The release records reach back unusually far, which can help when you need to document the history of an older property before a sale or refinance.
