True, but how would you propose regulation as you refer to it? There have to be limitations placed on "who" can access the records, and how do we determine that? Location, country, and culture are not ones we can use so far- I agree that there needs to be something to limit who can access the records, but it is hard to define those at this time. That should have been done right from the beginning- like existing title examiners that worked in each respective court house- but then as word spread- there would have to be exceptions or modifications to the "elite list" of subscribers. The big problems are in the restrictions that "limits" place on the system as it exists.
Right now, anyone with the money can get in- how they use the site is up to them and then "if" they can navigate the site also.These on line sites require a very good working knowledge of the respective clerk's office and all the quirks that are inherent with each one- if you don't "know" the office, you are just asking for errors, no two ways about it-I can't work in the counties you work in and you can't work in mine-just that easy- as for how or why the Big Title companies are suggesting that their agents use the overseas connections is a puzzle they are presently having to deal with since all the claims are making them have a better understanding of what a "local professional" can provide-and what an offshore one "can't"-
Let me know what you come up with, it is always a good idea to pass information on to the respective clerks and have them think things over too.
