Gwinnett Property Records Now Digitized

There will be a dedication of the new Real Estate Records room on Tuesday, August 19, 2008. The dedication will be hosted by Clerk of Superior Court Tom Lawler. The dedication will be attended by the Commissioner and other dignitaries.

More than 12 million real estate documents were scanned and indexed. Property records going back to 1871 were digitized.

Now the office will operate without paper records, and because of that, they say that the record room will never need to be larger than its current size.

"....The Clerk’s office receives and processes more than a quarter million property records each year. At the time the Clerk requested the project, the office was creating between 25 and 40 300-page deed books each business day. These books had to be secured on traditional shelving, so temporary shelves were added when no more shelf space was available."

"....Gwinnett residents are invited to use the new property room in the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Access to the deed records in the property room is free, as always, with a statutory fee of $ .25 per page for each copy."
