DataTrace Title Support

DataTrace is updating the state tax lien codes to distinguish “in county” state tax liens vs “out of county” state tax liens. From January 1, 2024, forward, users now have the option to view all liens or only in-county liens. All document codes for liens filed on the State website (starting in 2018 to present) are updated as follows. The new codes will replace any previous LN codes in DTS.

DataTrace has completely redesigned the search logic for Enhanced Name, making this new and improved name search better than before with accurate search results for General Name (GI), Grantor/Grantee (PI), and True Grantor/Grantee (where available).  The newest logic is controlled by the Last Name Match Settings bar along with a logic called Contains.  The input screens are formatted for ease of use for requesting an individual name vs  a business/trust, but the system no longer does a categorization on those names (individual vs business vs trust labels).
