Record the conveyance personally in the county clerk's office.
Correct Answer
A. Endorse on or attach a certificate, signed by the officer, stating the required matters.
AI Explanation
Section 306 focuses on the officer's certificate. Real Property Law §306 requires the officer taking the acknowledgment or proof to endorse thereon or attach a certificate signed by the officer stating the matters required to be done, known, or proved. In contrast, authentication under Executive Law §133 is a later county-clerk certificate used only when requested.
