Dear Associates:
Pursuant to our previous Bulletin FL2007005, Stewart Title required any agents wishing to take advantage of the Uniform Real Property Electronic Recording Act, F.S. Section 695.27, to wait until the Florida Department of State had promulgated the electronic recording standards. The Florida Department of State has now promulgated those electronic recording standards and County Clerks in the State of Florida may now electronically record documents. If you wish to avail yourself of this procedure, you should contact the County Clerks in your area to determine their specific requirements and which vendors are available to provide electronic recording services.
Please feel free to contact the underwriting department of Stewart Title in Florida should you have questions regarding these matters.
