PROVO, Utah, Aug. 22, 2019 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Simplifile, a leading provider of real estate document collaboration and recording technologies for lenders, settlement agents, and counties, today announced that the Town of Westerly has joined Simplifile\u2019s e-recording network following the July 1 passage of a law authorizing e-recording statewide in Rhode Island.<\/p>\n

\"Simplifile\"
\n\u201cThis is a terrific development for Rhode Island settlement agents and municipal recorders, who have long expressed an interest in modernizing their recording processes,\u201d said Paul Clifford, president of Simplifile. \u201cWe\u2019re ready to help additional municipalities get up and running \u2014 a process that usually takes only days \u2014 so they can take advantage of e-recording\u2019s significant time and cost savings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rhode Island joins 47 other U.S. states that have authorized e-recording of deeds, mortgages, and other documents to enable faster and more cost-effective land record transactions. Only Kentucky and Vermont have yet to begin e-recording.<\/p>\n

Simplifile\u2019s e-recording service is available in 54% of all U.S. counties. Through Simplifile, settlement agents can scan and submit land records directly to any of the 1,965 participating county recording offices. In just minutes, the county recorder can review, stamp, record and return documents to the settlement agent electronically. In addition, recording fees and associated payments can be processed directly through Simplifile\u2019s secure service, eliminating payment errors and check-writing expenses.<\/p>\n
