Benefits of eRecording
Make life simpler with Simplifile. Enjoy the countless benefits of eRecording with Simplifile.
Documents are recorded in minutes
The biggest reason people have fallen in love with eRecording? The amount of time it saves.
Instead of waiting several days or weeks for documents to be recorded and mailed back to you, you can literally have your documents recorded in minutes using Simplifile...all with just a few mouse clicks.
To eRecord with Simplifile, all you need is a computer and high-speed internet to upload and submit documents to counties. With paperless submission, the county also benefits as they are able to review documents, stamp and return to submitters through Simplifile with little or no delay.
In race-to-record states, eRecording can make all the difference in ensuring time-sensitive documents are recorded quickly and efficiently.
Avoid mailing costs, traffic, and wasted time
Faster turnaround of recorded documents isn’t the only way eRecording saves document submitters time. Getting in your car, driving to the courthouse, dealing with traffic, and waiting in line to record your documents every day is...no way to live. Especially when you can do it all electronically with Simplifile.
Everything from extra copy paper to envelopes, paper clips and postage can be avoided as you start recording documents electronically, saving you hundreds if not thousands of dollars annually on mailing expenses alone.
You also save time and money by not having to pay for travel time that employees may require to take walk-in documents to the county for recording. Ultimately, the little things can really add up, and both you and your employees will have more time to focus on other important tasks throughout the workday.

Eliminate check-writing expenses
In addition to submitting your documents electronically for recording, Simplifile also enables you to pay the county’s recording fees electronically through our secure, web-based service.
This means no more writing checks and sending them in the mail where they are vulnerable to getting lost or altered en route to the county along with the paper originals.
Payments are securely processed via electronic funds transfer or Automated Clearing House (ACH), making it simple and easy to avoid payment errors that could delay recording.
eRecording also helps to reduce check fraud by increasing the security of your payment information and sending it directly to the county through electronic means.
