The Knox County Register of Deeds earlier this week unveiled a new website designed to give residents and property owners a deeper look into the local real estate market.
“I wanted to give the public something more open and user friendly,” said Knox County Register of Deeds Nick McBride. “Right now, it seems like people have a big interest in the market, so we wanted to revamp the website to make such information – past and current – easier to find.”
The Knox County Register of Deeds Office records and maintains all deeds and other property documents. The office’s website can be found at https://rod.knoxcounty.org/
The site features all things property related, including sales, prices, foreclosures, mortgage lending information, and sales analysis that measure the strengths and weaknesses of the current market.
In addition, McBride’s office also is offering folks a free weekly real estate transfer report. Those interested can subscribe https://rod.knoxcounty.org/real-estate-transfers/ at no cost. The report will be emailed each Monday and include information from the previous week.
“The report will look at all the properties that were sold and provide a legal description of each piece,” McBride added.
The office is also rebranding its property fraud alert program – a free service that uses up-to-date technology to let owners know if there is a potential threat to their property and so they can act before it’s too late.
Those who sign up will immediately receive alerts via email when a document has been recorded that affects that person’s name, business name, or real estate.
For more information, please call 865-215-2330.
