The office of the Manatee County Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller recently adopted an e-recording platform to streamline the overall recording process for Manatee County residents. Through Simplifile, a leading provider of real estate document collaboration and recording technologies for lenders, settlement agents and counties, the Clerk’s Office is now able to electronically receive, stamp, record and return documents through its system in a matter of minutes. This efficient platform reduces documentation and processing errors and eliminates check-writing expenses by allowing settlement agents to submit recording fees and other recording-related expenses directly through an integrated electronic payment system. Manatee County joins 51 other Florida counties that also offer e-recording through the system. Nationwide, more than 1,735 counties e-record with Simplifile, making it the largest e-recording network in the US.
