eRecording - do you need it?
Saturday, May 12th, 2007My friend is a real estate developer - I think he has spent about half of his life now at a local courthouse submitting paperwork to get building permits. These days he just owns property and has another company managing the units, but he used to double his time spent at the courthouse back when he managed properties and needed to evict tenants - talk about a nightmare.
Apparently some companies are opening the doors now for what should have been the first thing we used the internet for - submitting paperwork to this wonderful government of ours.
eRecording is a relatively new method of document submission that allows everybody to save time. Instead of submitting all of your records in a hard-copy format you can submit them online. This provides another secondary benefit - employees of the government are usually pretty excited to leave work as soon as their shift is over (if not a few minutes early 
) which puts out a lot of small business owners out who are accustomed to working 10-12 hour days.
Submitting documents online allows business owners to submit their documents on their own time, not somebody else’s. Find out if your county offers eRecording services or read more about the benefits of eRecording.
