E-Recording

Dear Valued Customers and Citizens,

We were one of the first counties in the state of North Carolina to electronically record all document types and one of the first counties in the nation to electronically record plat maps. Because we have adapted to a changing global economy, we now electronically record a majority of the documents we receive. I am very proud that Johnston County is leading the state and nation in this endeavor. As your public servant in this office, I will continue to look at ways to enhance customer service and lower costs for the taxpayers. Here are some of the numerous benefits of eRecording:

Streamline Operations - Increase staff productivity and eliminate paper-handling processes and errors.
Increase Document Security - Filing electronically increases document security.
Save Time and Money - eRecording speeds up round-trip recording and is more economical than using a runner, express mail or courier service. eRecording will also save the taxpayers by reducing the need for more employees in the Register of Deeds office.
Quick Turnaround - Documents are recorded and then returned to the submitter for their review in a matter of seconds.
Environmentally Friendly - By eliminating paper Registers, submitters, and notaries will be supporting environmental initiatives related to the saving of trees and the energy that is expended to convert them to paper.
