The purpose of e-Recording is to allow a customer to electronically record documents at the County from the customer’s office using a personal computer, a scanner, an internet connection, and the applicable software. Upon receipt of a customer’s transmission of documents, County Deputy Recorders will follow the same process of checking the document for compliance to their recording requirements before accepting and actually recording the document. The popularity and ease of e-Recording has undoubtedly made recording a much easier task. They have experienced less walk-in customer traffic as the commercial recording customer takes advantage of this exciting aspect of recording via an electronic transmission. As customers can record the document from their own office and retain the original document, this process eliminates the need for the County Recorder’s Office to scan and mail the document back to the customer. This resulted in significant cost savings for the department.
