Scott is on to something. The company is working with Amazon Web Services to create intelligent document processing. The goal? To help deed holders easily check for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/is-a-hurtful-deed-restriction-lurking-in-your-deed\/\">race-based deed restrictions<\/a> \u2014 and take action. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Race-based prejudice is all too common in deeds across the United States. The language can go undetected for years. And when homeowners encounter it, what are they supposed to do? Is AI the answer to the problem?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, we look at what\u2019s starting in Seattle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving Change: AI at Its Best<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Racial segregation formed neighborhoods. And it still haunts many U.S. home deeds. Deed language expressly kept homes in the hands of some, and kept others out. That lingering language is a problem that, until very recently, had no solutions. That\u2019s because deeds, as legal instruments, aren\u2019t supposed to be changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But one at a time, states are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/facing-up-to-discriminatory-deed-language-what-pennsylvania-did\/\">confronting harmful deed restrictions<\/a> that still lurk in many home deeds. In some states, such as Illinois and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/states-scrub-racial-deed-restrictions-from-the-records\/\">Missouri<\/a>, deed-scrubbing workshops are ongoing. The problem is hard to solve, even with entire teams on the task. Can AI make this difficult job easier?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe so. A new, AI-powered program called <em>Driving Change<\/em> is able to handle two key tasks. <em>Driving Change <\/em>can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Flag deeds with racially offensive language.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lay out a simple process for striking race-based deed restrictions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If this catches on, it will allow ordinary homeowners to handle the process themselves, as a rep from John L. Scott told <em>ZDNET.com<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But <em>will<\/em> it catch on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><em><strong>It\u2019s getting awfully hot out there...and new research shows <\/strong><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/epic-heat-new-study-links-racial-deed-restrictions-to-temperature-risk\/\"><strong><em>links between racial deed restrictions and overheating hazards<\/em><\/strong><\/a><em><strong>.<\/strong><\/em><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Designed With Ordinary Deed Holders in Mind<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It starts with a digitized deed. So, if your county has digitized deeds, you\u2019ll be able to use the tool when it\u2019s available. You\u2019ll just enter the address into a field, and computer vision can comprehend a whole, digitized deed. If racially exclusionary words appear, you as the deed holder can take step-by-step action to ready your deed for corrective recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The software automatically walks deed holders through the legal process of amending a property document. In fact, <em>ZDNET.com<\/em> tells us that Phil McBride, operating officer for John L. Scott, helped pass a new state law that lets Washington residents change racially restrictive deeds by striking or repudiating the offensive text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new tool:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Assists with amending the deed, filling in all the details (parcel number, legal description, etc.).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cues the homeowner to meet an online notary to finalize the new deed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Submits the file to the county recorder&#8217;s office.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>John L. Scott\u2019s founder and CEO recently learned that his grandparents obstructed a Black family&#8217;s attempt to buy a Seattle home. &#8220;Our industry was very complacent and culpable when these restrictions were coming into play,&#8221; McBride told <em>ZDNET<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, McBride says, the new project is opening up conversations about what\u2019s still \u201cpreventing generational wealth for Black Americans.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><em><strong>For every 15 of today\u2019s approved mortgage applicants, another person is left out. Typically that person is from a minority group, and a credit score is the issue. That\u2019s why <\/strong><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel-new-credit-score-models-are-coming\/\"><strong><em>new credit score models<\/em><\/strong><\/a><em><strong> are being adopted.<\/strong><\/em><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, When\u2019s the Launch?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The pilot is available only in the state of Washington. In just months, <em>Driving Change<\/em> should be available to deed holders. The platform should be going live by early 2025. And AWS says <em>Driving Change<\/em> will roll out beyond Washington, to other states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is innovation in real time. E-recording itself is pretty new. Only about 60% of Washington\u2019s home deeds, for instance, are digitized. Amazon&#8217;s AI tools do allow for optical character recognition with paper deeds. But if the deed is stored on microfiche, that\u2019s another challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soon, we\u2019ll see how it all plays out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Supporting References<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Eileen Yu for ZDNET (part of Red Ventures), via <em>ZDNet.com<\/em>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/transparency-is-sorely-lacking-amid-growing-ai-interest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Transparency Is Sorely Lacking Amid Growing AI Interest<\/a> (May 10, 2024).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Stephani Condon for ZDNET (part of Red Ventures), via <em>ZDNet.com<\/em>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/how-a-real-estate-company-is-using-ai-to-find-and-remove-racist-language-from-property-documents\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Artificial Intelligence \u2013 How a Real Estate Company Is Using AI to Find and Remove Racist Language From Property Documents<\/a> (Oct. 19, 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">And as linked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\"><strong>More on topics: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mprnews.org\/story\/2022\/06\/15\/new-map-highlights-home-deeds-with-racist-language-in-ramsey-county\">Mapping racial deed restrictions in Minnesota<\/a><strong>, <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/erecording-is-next-level-deed-processing-know-what-it-is-and-why-its-legal\/\">eRecording is next-level deed processing<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/positive-multiethnic-students-working-together-on-laptops-6140697\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">William Fortunato<\/a>, via Pexels\/Canva.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seattle real estate firm John L.
