Simplifile announced that more than 50 additional jurisdictions in the eastern and southern U.S. have joined its eRecording network.
“As the need for eRecording becomes more pressing in our current climate, we welcome jurisdictions who are looking for ways to continue to deliver excellent service to their constituents,” Simplifile President Paul Clifford said in a release. “Document recording represents an important step in the closing stages of the mortgage transaction, and the ability to electronically submit and return mortgage documents for recording extends the value of digital mortgage efforts beyond the closing table.
“These most recent additions to our ever-growing eRecording network have demonstrated their commitment to providing efficient service, as well as improving the document recording process and the real estate transaction as a whole through technology,” Clifford said.
The newest jurisdictions include one each in Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, Maine and Massachusetts; two each in Louisiana, North Carolina and Tennessee; three each in Alabama and Connecticut; four each in Mississippi, New York and Rhode Island; eight in Kentucky; and 17 in Virginia.
