PROVO, Utah, Oct. 4, 2018 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Simplifile, a leading provider of real estate document collaboration and recording technologies for lenders, settlement agents, and counties, today announced that it has facilitated the first e-recording transaction in the state of West Virginia. The transaction was completed on Friday, Aug. 24 in Monongalia County, W. Va., which is the first recording jurisdiction in the state to begin e-recording land documents.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cUntil recently, West Virginia had been one of the few remaining holdouts on e-recording adoption. That has now changed,\u201d said Simplifile president, Paul Clifford. \u201cNow that other counties within the state can witness the added efficiency and reduced costs e-recording provides, we expect to see adoption ramp up significantly. We stand ready to help additional West Virginia recording jurisdictions make the switch, joining the more than 1,800 counties in Simplifile\u2019s e-recording network.\u201d<\/p>\n

The closing attorney for the transaction submitted the documents via Simplifile\u2019s E-recording platform to the Monongalia County recorder\u2019s office on Thursday, Aug. 23. Due to the nature of West Virginia\u2019s recording process, the verified and recorded documents were returned to the closing attorney the next business day. This represents a significant improvement over Monongalia County\u2019s previous, paper-based process.<\/p>\n

As Monongalia County Clerk Carye Blaney told The Dominion Post<\/a>: \u201cOnce Simplifile accepts the document, it\u2019s moved over to our portal. We review it, and once we record it, Simplifile deposits the money we need into our records and deals with the submitter. We don\u2019t have to worry about bounced checks. We don\u2019t have to worry about not having the proper amount for the recording. All those issues are solved because it\u2019s handled before it ever gets to us \u2026 We\u2019ve been working on this for quite some time. Most other states in the nation have been electronically recording, and have been for years. West Virginia has been a lone holdout, so we\u2019ve really been working to get ourselves into a position to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n
