eCRV Involvement

field_block:node:page:body

In 2014, eCRV replaced the paper Certificate of Real Estate Value process. The Minnesota Department of Revenue developed eCRV with the Minnesota Electronic Real Estate Recording Task Force, counties, title companies, and real estate agents. The system allows real estate professionals, auditors, treasurers, assessors, public data users, and Revenue to electronically complete, route, record, and analyze eCRVs.

Benefits of eCRV include:

Ability for counties to alert submitters when changes are needed
Workflows that move the eCRV from submitters to assessors, auditors, treasurers, and Revenue
Public eCRV data in a searchable or downloadable form
Elimination of paper retention costs for counties and the state
More reliable and complete eCRV data for all users

In order to ensure continued success for eCRV, we have created an eCRV User Group and an eCRV Testing Advisory Panel.
