New Hanover County, North Carolina to eRecord with Simplifile
 |
| eRecording Made Simple |
To introduce the public to Simplifile’s eRecording Solution, the New Hanover County Register of Deeds is holding an eRecording demonstration 1:00 pm until 3:00 pm on Thursday, April 10, 2008 at the New Hanover County Historic Courthouse located at 24 North Third Street in the Commissioners Assembly Room (#301) in Wilmington, North Carolina. Simplifile representatives Molly Terry and Bob Gannon will demonstrate the Simplifile eRecording 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 New Hanover Register of Deed’s Office is pleased to work with Simplifile to provide eRecording services to our clients,” said Register of Deeds, Rebecca P. Smith. According to Smith, “We are continually evaluating ways to improve the quality of our services, and believe that eRecording enables us to more efficiently record documents, eliminate 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.”
More than a mere trend in land record document submission, eRecording is a government priority. Federal (ESIGN) and state legislation (UETA, URPERA) have established the legal basis for secure electronic recording, and dozens of states and counties are already eRecording today.
"Simplifile is thrilled to provide industry-leading eRecording services to the New Hanover County Register of Deed’s Office and their customers. Register of Deeds, Rebecca P. Smith, and her staff continue to take 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—including counties in North Carolina—companies doing business with the Register of Deed’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 New Hanover County are invited to contact the Register of Deed’s Office or Simplifile for more information on how to take advantage of Simplifile eRecording services.
