📢BIG news for property owners!!!

🏡 OWN PROPERTY IN IOWA? READ THIS! 👀

A new statewide notification system is coming to Iowa, and there’s something you can do RIGHT NOW to make getting signed up easier when it launches! 👇

🔔 WHAT’S COMING?
Iowa is preparing to launch a FREE statewide system that will allow property owners to receive notifications when documents are recorded that may affect their property.

🌎 AND IT’S STATEWIDE!
You’ll be able to sign up for notifications on property you own in any and all Iowa counties — you won’t be limited to just one county.

💻 SO WHAT CAN YOU DO NOW?
Head over to IowaLandRecords.org and create your FREE Iowa Land Records account!

👉 WHY SIGN UP NOW?
Having your account already set up will make the registration process much smoother for you — and for the Iowa Land Records staff — once the notification system is ready.

📧 WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU SIGN UP?
Once you create your Iowa Land Records account, Iowa Land Records will email you when the property notification system is ready for you to register.

⚠️ ONE IMPORTANT NOTE!
The notification system is NOT available yet! It is currently in the testing phase, with plans to roll it out to the public this month.

Creating your Iowa Land Records account now is simply a way to get ahead of the game and be ready when the new system launches. 🎯

✅ FREE account
✅ Statewide access
✅ Get notified when registration opens
✅ Be ready for the rollout

👉 Get your account set up today at IowaLandRecords.org!
