Public Record Data
 

We've Laid the Groundwork and Set the Standard - Realcomp's Public Record Data (PRD) Coverage Now Includes the Entire State!

Eighty Three. That’s the number of counties in Michigan, and the number of counties for which Realcomp provides the most complete public record database (PRD). Collected directly from municipalities by Core Logic, our public record database is accurate, standardized, and immediately available.

To view the dates each county was last updated with Tax and/or Deed information, as well as to see which counties provide Property Descriptive Data, click here to view the PRD Update Status Report.

The foundation has been set over the last two decades, with a proven system, ensuring you (and your customers) are the beneficiary of the state’s most comprehensive up-to-date PRD system.
