Corrective Warranty Deeds in Alabama
You just bought a new house, have your deed in hand, and you are ready to relax in your new home. But after taking another look at the deed, you notice a mistake in the legal description. Now what?
Alabama law provides for reformation of a deed by judicial intervention under (Ala. Code 1975, 35-4-150), but filing a corrective deed might be an option to resolve simple mistakes.
A corrective deed is an instrument used to fix an error in a deed that was recorded at an earlier date. It can only be used to correct non-material errors, causing no actual change in the substance of the deed. Common minor errors include misspelled names or missing information, such as marital status, or a mistake transcribing courses and distances in the legal description of the property. Major changes to the substance of the deed, or details that effect how property is titled require a new deed.
A corrective warranty deed has the same form as the previously recorded warranty deed containing the error and includes all the same information, in addition to correcting the error. The corrective deed states the nature of the error and recites the date and recording information of the erroneous deed.
The deed must be acknowledged before any of the officers listed in (Ala. Code 1975, 35-4-24). For the corrective deed to be valid, all parties who signed the prior deed must sign the corrective deed in the presence of a notarial official. The execution of a deed must be attested by at least one witness in Alabama (Ala. Code 1975, 35-4-20). If the grantor is married, Alabama requires that both spouses appear before an officer authorized by law to take acknowledgements of deeds and sign the deed (Ala. Code 1975, 6-10-3).
Most transfers of real property are subject to a privilege or license tax, but corrective deeds are exempt under Ala. Code 1975, 40-22-1, and do not require a Real Estate Sales Validation Form (Form RT-1).

The documents themselves are fine and the information provided with them is helpful. I find the actual processing of the documents, however, to be difficult particularly once the document has been saved. First, I note that the box for the date only allows entry of the last 2 digits of the year. Unfortunately, my download only allows me to enter one of the 2 digits required. When I delete it repeatedly, it eventually allows both digits to be entered but puts them in extremely small text and in superscrypt. I have not found a solution to this problem and am not sure the deed can even be recorded with this problem.
Another problem is that if you try to revise the document after you have saved it the curser goes to the end of the line after each key entry. This means that there basically is no way to efficiently save the document for reworking later since you will have to delete everything you have entered in the text box unless you only need to make a single keystroke change or are willing to replace the curser after each entry. Try that with a long property description!
Please note that I am using a Mac to prepare my documents and perhaps this is part of an "incompatibility problem". However, I didn't see a disclaimer regarding Mac use and so would expect the documents to perform correctly. Overall, I give the program a "2 star" rating because I am experiencing significant difficulties in entering dates in the documents even before saving them and because saving your work for later revision appears to be basically unworkable.
Thank you for your feedback Thomas, we appreciate you being specific about the issues you encountered. Adobe and Mac have a fairly long history of issues working together.

Best Way EVER to record a warranty deed! It was nice to not have to drive anywhere and find the facility closed or "unable to process due to covid19 and buildings being closed". The correspondence between me and deeds.com was very timely in our back and forth email correspondence, and the processing was all finished in a timely manner. Totally worth the extra $15 that I paid in addition to the recording fee. I would use this again and again. My time and the efficiency of the job completed is worth the money.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

It was very difficult to maneuver through your website the wording on certain things are very difficult to figure out. I can't seem to get through to one place that I want versus what I don't want. I think it needs to be a little more explanatory and I am a college graduate so it's not like I'm stupid or anything. Thank you
Thank you for your feedback. Very sorry to hear that we failed you with our navigation. We will certainly address it to see how we can approve. Have a wonderful day.
