Iowa recorders collaborate statewide through Iowa Land Records. This system enables us to pool resources for services including a statewide database, a statewide e-recording platform, and now a statewide notification system. This service reflects what county recorders do best: working locally, collaborating statewide, and finding practical ways to better serve Iowans.
