The electronic registry for tracking ownership of mortgage loans and servicing rights has been expanded to allow the registration of loans where MERS is not the mortgagee of record. These "information only" registrations are being called MERS iRegistrations, and they give members the anti-fraud and tracking benefits of a "MERS as original mortgagee" registration without naming MERS as the mortgagee. The iRegistration procedure can be used to register a loan prior to closing, MERS said. The MERS website is www.mersinc.com.
