The Linn County Recorder's Office will begin using a new land recording software September 3, 2024. Effective September 3, recording and searching will be done in the new system operated by Fidlar Technologies.
The Linn County Recorder's Office will suspend recording documents at noon on Friday, August 30 to prepare for the new software. This step will ensure no documents are pending during the conversion to the new system. The office will continue to accept documents for recording, but documents received after August 30 at noon will not be recorded until the new system is operational, which is expected to be September 3, 2024.
"We are excited to bring this technology to Linn County. It will improve our entire recording process," said Linn County Recorder Carolyn Siebrecht. "The real estate industry has modernized and is using more digital processes. This new software will be more efficient for us and our customers, and it will save money by reducing our use of paper and postage."
The online property search is also part of the software change.
"We want our customers to know that when they visit the Recorder's Office website and search property records, the website will look different than the last time they visited," Siebrecht said.
Software enhancements include:
