The short answer
If you enrolled before Montgomery County, Indiana changed its land-records system on November 1, 2026, the Recorder says you need to re-enroll in property fraud alerts.
Montgomery County, Indiana, is telling property owners to re-enroll in its free property fraud alert service following a land-records system change effective November 1, 2026. If you signed up before the change, check your enrollment rather than assuming it carried over.
What to do next
Start at the county Recorder’s official Property Fraud Alert Program page and follow its registration link. Check that you are selecting Montgomery County in Indiana; several states have counties with the same name.
If you are unsure whether your previous registration remains active, contact the Recorder’s Office at 765-364-6415. Follow the county’s re-enrollment instruction even if your previous account still appears familiar.
What the alerts watch
The county describes a name-based service: it notifies registered owners when a document is recorded under a monitored name. An alert does not stop a filing. Review an unfamiliar document before deciding whether it concerns your property.
The notice gives the system-change date, but does not state when the notice itself was published.
