Recording Notification System

Helping to Prevent Property Fraud


Be Informed, Be Alert, Be Notified

The Cole County Recorder of Deeds Office is pleased to announce that there is now a new notification system called the iCounty Notification Service.

This Recording Notification System was developed as a result of an increase in property fraud activities across the country that can result in the illegal transfer of ownership of your property.

This Recording Notification System is a free electronic notification service that alerts a subscriber via email when a document has been recorded with their monitored criteria (e.g. individual names, trusts, businesses, and other entities).

This service will not stop property fraud from being attempted but can provide an important early warning system, which will allow property owners to take the appropriate measures to protect their property.
