ALTA® has funded the development of the Mortgage Electronic Registrations System (MERS) to help mortgage lenders eliminate the need for recording mortgage loan assignments when ownership rights change in secondary market transactions. The MERS System allows settlement agents to quickly determine the correct current servicer of any loan on the system. This enables settlement agents to obtain timely, accurate, and reliable pay-off amounts and terms without the typical "telephone tag" or the costly and time-consuming fax/fax back process. The MERS system has registered more than 22 million loans since it began in 1996, with over 22,000 loans being registered daily!
ALTA® members are offered a special discount to access this database - just $75 per year.
