Law firms and title companies need market strength to stay competitive and profitable. Strategies to differentiate service or reduce operating expenses are worth consideration, especially in this tough economy. With e-recording of public record documents you can differentiate your service levels, make efficient use of available technologies and reduce costs at the same time.
E-recording can help you deliver better customer service to your real estate customers through streamlined post-closing processes and faster recording document delivery. With E-recording as the first step in your post-closing workflow, you can quickly record, issue the title policy, and promptly deliver important closing documents to your customers.
File efficiencies supported by E-recording include:
*Fewer costly file touches by your closing staff;
*Lower courier, mail and delivery expenses;
*Reduced copier, toner and paper costs;
*Reduced gap exposure;
*Less chance for document fraud;
*No more hunting for the file when the recordings are returned;
*No more piles of files waiting for policies to be typed;
*No more delinquent policy demand letters from lenders;
*No more recording checks sitting in closed files;
*Recording, policy typing, and post-closing become one step; and
*E-Recording helps you go green!
E-Recording is not technology of the future. E-Recording is the standard for recording real estate documents in thousands of title offices around the country today. Law firms and title companies are finding significant benefits to e-recording and moving toward a more paperless work environment. E-Recording is available in counties across the country.
You can improve your workflow, streamline costs, improve service and move toward a paperless closing environment all by embracing E-Recording. While researching e-recording vendors ask about service and customer support. Most e-recording vendors do not have staff in the field to offer one-on-one training and support. Look for user-friendly software that allows you to see your document as the clerk will see it before you submit it for recording.
Your E-recording vendor should support workflow processes that are streamlined and simple. Make sure you select an E-recording vendor who understands your business needs. Your E-recording vendor must:
*Offer priority client service and support;
*Ensure accelerated recording in multiple counties from one site;
*Offer ACH fee payment handling for easy accounting and tracking; and
*Support many document types within their county footprint.
Simplifile is an E-recording vendor that provides all these benefits and is ready to be your e-recording vendor of choice. Simplifile is perfect for organizations of all shapes and sizes.
