(openPR) - CARVER COUNTY, MINNESOTA – July 31, 2008 - Simplifile announced today that Carver County, Minnesota will begin electronically recording (eRecording) land record documents such as satisfactions, and mortgages, submitted by title companies, banks, and attorneys to the Recorder’s Office through the Simplifile eRecording Service.
To introduce the public to eRecording, the Carver County Recorder’s Office is hosting an eRecording open house on Wednesday, August 20, 2008 from 11:00 am until noon in the Carver County Administration Building Training Room [Main Entrance #1; 2nd Floor] located at 600 E. 4th Street in Chaska, Minnesota. Simplifile vice-president, Dallen Miner, will be in attendance to demonstrate the system and conduct a question and answer session.
eRecording is the process of submitting, receiving, and processing, via a secure Internet site, documents for recording that have traditionally been delivered to the county for recording by runner, express mail, or courier service. eRecording offers customers the ability to simplify and accelerate all aspects of the recording process, dramatically shortening the gap and improving auditability.
“The Carver County Recorder’s Office is pleased to work with Simplifile to provide eRecording services to our clients,” said Property Records Manager, Carl (Kelly) Hanson. According to Hanson, “We are continually evaluating ways to improve the quality of our services, and believe that eRecording enables us to more efficiently record documents, reduce document filing errors, and actually increase document security—while at the same time, work with our private sector partners, like Simplifile, to improve turn-around times and increase efficiencies. eRecording customers will now have the ability to record and track the status of documents from the convenience of their offices, using a standard Web browser. And it will save our customers trips to the County Administration Building, saving on transportation and fuel costs.”
Simplifile and Carver County Land Record Vendor, TriMin, worked together to integrate their respective eRecording and county archiving systems. This joint effort is the direct result of a recent contractual alliance between Simplifile and TriMin intended to provide TriMin-enabled Counties such as Carver County and their customers with access to industry-leading eRecording services. According to TriMin Government Solutions President Bill Mori, “TriMin is pleased to build on its strong relationship with Simplifile by expanding our cooperative eRecording solutions into Minnesota. Carver County is directly benefiting from this relationship. We look forward to involving all our Minnesota eRecording counties in this expanded service very soon. It represents significantly more submission documents into their counties, thereby increasing the return on investment they have made in electronic recording. We are proud to team up with Carver County and Simplifile to bring this added value to the marketplace.”
Carver County is a leader in adopting the use of secured technology to increase productivity, and by its action, demonstrates that eRecording is more than a mere trend in land record document submission, but a government priority. Federal (ESIGN) and state legislation (UETA, URPERA) has established the legal basis for secure electronic recording, and dozens of states and counties are already eRecording today.
“Simplifile is pleased to provide industry-leading eRecording services to the Carver County Recorder’s Office and their customers. By implementing eRecording, Carver County is taking proven steps to make the land record submission and recording process easier, more secure and cost-effective through the use of technology,” said Paul Clifford, President of Simplifile. “Based on our experience deploying eRecording solutions in counties nationwide, companies doing business with the Recorder’s Office will enjoy significant cost savings, productivity gains and enhanced filing and recording services by eRecording with Simplifile.”
Individuals and organizations that regularly file documents with Carver County are invited to contact the Recorder’s Office or Simplifile for more information on how to take advantage of Simplifile eRecording services.
