Benefits of Electronic Recording of Real Estate Documents

• Document submitters can prepare and transmit documents to the register of deeds quickly.
• Fewer errors are made by document submitters and register of deeds staff because of software system requirements.
• Document submitters get immediate feedback when documents have obvious errors, and receive recorded images immediately after recording. There is no need to wait weeks or months for the document to be returned via US Mail.
• The register of deeds can review documents for statutory requirements and electronically send back documents that do not conform to law with notes can be added.
• The e-Recording system records, receipts, indexes, “scans” and “mails” back the document image in one operation-normally the process would take 24 hours,
• The historic intent of the notarization process is restored, adding a new level of reliability to documents.
• The register of deeds can use electronic recording to address increasing workloads despite county hiring freezes. Over time the use of electronic recording will increase office productivity significantly.
• Staff time, printing materials and postage are saved for both the lender and the register of deeds.

NOTE: Electronic recording of real estate documents began August 5, 2008 (no deeds) and January 20, 2010 we accepted the first e-Recorded deed in our office.
