(Mineola, NY) Nassau County Clerk Maureen O’Connell was the guest speaker at the Milan Seniors Club meeting at Clinton G. Martin Park in New Hyde Park. Clerk O’Connell spoke with members about the services the Clerk’s office provides to the community including the processing and maintenance of the County’s land and court records. Clerk O’Connell was also proud to announce to the group that Nassau County land and miscellaneous records are now available to search online. The public can access County Clerk records such as deeds, mortgages, property cards, UCC filings, and business names from their home or office. The Clerk explained that this online service has been introduced for the convenience of Nassau County residents. Access is available through the County Clerk’s website at http://www.nassaucountyny.gov/clerk or by going to www.uslandrecords.com.
Clerk O’Connell also advised residents about mass mailings for costly deed retrieval services, some of which cost 1000% more than the Clerk’s Office fees, and to disregard such offers. These deceptive solicitations advise homeowners they need to purchase a certified copy of their deed which actually can be obtained directly from the Clerk’s office for a nominal fee. She cautioned homeowners to be aware of other types of scams seen at the Clerk’s office and initiatives she has undertaken to assist and protect residents. Clerk O’Connell reminded the seniors to be wary of solicitations looking for any type of personal identifying information.
