Butler County Recorder Danny N. Crank has announced a new property alert program through his office is up and running. Property owners who sign up on the recorder's webpage will be alerted to any changes or paperwork filed concerning their property. Crank says people are concerned about title theft and deed fraud because of commercials for Lifelock and other security firms. He says those crimes are extremely rare in the county. The recorder's office has mailed over 95,000 cards to property owners to notify them of the new service.
