I'm finding the path of this discussion troubling.

My computer, the courthouse computer...

The fact of the matter is, the computer is nothing but an instrument to double check our work and give us a foundation on which to follow loosely. The documents themselves give me my chain of title. Not an index on a computer. I didn't put the index there, I didn't type it in. I don't know the person who typed it in, therefore due to my paranoid personality, I find every computer index suspect. I would only accept a true dilligent chain of title to be found within the recorded documents themselves.

Even more troubling is I find most examiners in their quest for a paycheck tend to take shortcuts in their work. When is the last time you saw an examiner take out a protractor in the courthouse? I know most of Florida is lot and block and has been since the beginnings of that Statehood, but what about double checking the legal on the deed compared to the mortgage. How about the legal on the assignment?

If we are taking the index at face value, does that mean we are not even looking at the document? Do we have a valid notary stamp? Prior to X year did you have 2 signatures? Is this person even qualified to sign as an agent of the corp? Did you pull their articles of incorporation? Then run that person through probate and clerk of courts? There are a million things an examiner must do during the course of an exam that just pop up.

So, to answer your question more suscinctly, no, I absolutely do not think and Indian person who is not living in the County they are searching can do the job.

Last note, in Medina County, Oh. The clerk does not allow online viewing of documents. How then do you read a divorce decree? Many Counties probate is not online, but the rest of the County is.

The entire system sucks and it's examiners taking work from xyz company or whoever just to make a buck that are tying their own noose. Every time you do a search for one of these companies, you are adding to your own demise. The more information they gather, the less useful you are. I would hope anyone that reads this gets the picture plain and clear. Accepting work from overseas outsourcers is killing your industry, your livelihood and eventually your own job.
