  1. Case Study: Minnesota’s Electronic Real Estate Recording Task Force 16 September 2003 Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  2. ERERTF history • Formed in 1999 as a collaborative, volunteer effort • Legislation and funding • Lots and lots of planning • Phase 1 testing underway • Phase 2 testing slated for late 2003 • Completion and report to legislature in 2004 Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  3. Stakeholders and TF members • County Recorders, Auditors and Treasurers • Legislators • Fannie Mae and banks • Title companies • Lawyers and realtors • GIS community • State agencies (e.g. Department of Transportation) • Minnesota Historical Society • Notaries • Faculty from Minnesota Law Schools.

  4. What is recording? • Recordingis the act of entering deeds, mortgages, easements, and other written instruments that affect title to real property into the public record. • The purpose of recording is to give notice, to anyone who is interested, of the various interests that parties hold in a particular tract of land. Recording determines the legal priority of instruments that affect title to a particular tract of land. Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  5. What is in a real estate record? • Buyer and seller • Property description • Legal rights • Finances and mortgages • Authorizations – signatures • Historical context – past and future • Aggregation of traditional forms Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  6. What is an ERER system? A publicly owned and managed county system, defined by statewide standards, that does not require paper or “wet” signatures, and under which real estate documents may be electronically: • Created, executed, and authenticated; • Delivered to and recorded with, as well as indexed, archived, and retrieved by, county recorders and registrars of title; and • Retrieved by anyone from both on- and off-site locations. Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  7. Why is ERER important? • Huge and increasing volume of filings • Decreasing budgets for government • Very slow and highly inefficient paper workflow between automated activities • Secondary mortgage market demand for digital records • Increasing complexity of property rights and descriptions • Legislative mandate to develop common technical and information architectures Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  8. What are the models? • Level 1: images and minimal metadata • Level 2: images, metadata, digital or digitized signature • Level 3: so-called “smart” documents in XML format, following recognized standards Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  9. Technology is not the problem • Getting along • Ordinary challenges to re-engineering • Extraordinary political challenges to re-engineering • Resources • Setting standards • Structuring “unstructured” documents • Allocating costs and benefits Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  10. What are the standards? • MN Electronic Real Estate Recording Task Force • Mortgage Industry Standards Maintenance Organization (MISMO) • Property Records Industry Association (PRIA) • Legal XML • GIS community • Vendors (e.g., Ingeo) Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board

  11. What are the recordkeeping issues? • “Title insurance is vital insurance.” • Preservation: formats, media • Positioning: Standards and architecture • Information assets: data re-use and enhancement • Soft skills: project management, education, collaboration Missouri Information Technology Advisory Board
