Questions answered? Let's get started!
There are many reasons why a Substitute Trustee is needed, some include: original trustee is no longer available or can't act, the lender wants to change the trustee, property needs to foreclosed on and a different trustee is required, etc. This form is used by the current beneficiary/lender to appoint a new trustee for a Deed of Trust.
Arkansas Statutes State:
(b)(1) The beneficiary may appoint a successor trustee at any time by filing a substitution of trustee for record with the recorder of the county in which the trust property is situated.
(2) The new trustee shall succeed to all the power, duties, authority, and title of the original trustee and any previous successor trustee.
(3) The beneficiary may, by express provision in the substitution of a trustee, ratify and confirm actions taken on its behalf by the new trustee prior to the recording of the substitution of the trustee. Ark Statute 18-50-102(b)
(c) The substitution shall identify the deed of trust by stating the names of the original parties thereto, the date of recordation, and the book and page where recorded or the recorder's document number. The substitution shall also state the name of the new trustee and shall be executed and duly acknowledged by all the beneficiaries or their successors in interest.

I AM NOT TOO SMART WHEN IT COMES TO COMPUTER STUFF, BUT THIS WEBSITE MADE IT SO VERY EASY & SIMPLE TO ACCOMPLISH THE TASK THAT WAS NEEDED. I FOUND MY STATE, FOUND THE TYPE OF DEED I NEEDED, FILLED IN THE BLANKS, PRINTED IT OUT & THEN GOT THE REQUIRED SIGNATURES WITNESSED & NOTARIZED -- EASY-PEASY! I WILL BE USING DEEDS.COM IN THE FUTURE & WILL CERTAINLY RECOMMEND IT TO FRIENDS & FAMILY. I REALLY APPRECIATED ALL THE OTHER FORMS OF EXPLANATION THEY GIVE YOU AS WELL AS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW YOUR COMPLETED DOCUMENT SHOULD LOOK ONCE YOU'RE FINISHED.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I did not like the size of the Warranty Deed form which took 2 pages to print. It should be no larger than 8 1/2 by 14 inches. I did not like that I could not reformat it to be smaller, could not eliminate unused lines, could not delete the excessive 4 signature lines, could not copy or paste into text editor. Very unsatisfactory rating.
Thank you for your feedback Michael. Unfortunately we don't make the requirements, we only make the documents to be compliant with the requirements. Have a great day!

I thought the forms were reasonably priced, the instructions included in the packet were thorough, and the examples helpful. Thank you for the additional CDR forms too. I contacted the Recorder's office via email with a question and Jennifer Bowser answered promptly. Job well done! However, when I delivered the deed and Real Property Transfer Declaration to the Clerk's office in Lafayette, the clerk was unfamiliar with the Declaration document being submitted and it took some time to convince her to submit the form without charging the recording fee. She even tried to phone the recorder's office for clarification, but no one answered. There then was an additional form at that office that I had to complete called Recording Request/Transmittal Form. I would suggest including that form with instructions in your on-line packet to speed up the process when a Deed is delivered to the County Clerk's satellite office. I do not expect every clerk to know all the particulars of recording requirements but a little knowledge wouldn't hurt.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The service was great but after I did all my work and uploaded the documents they canceled my stuff because the county they had on the list doesnt take/or have set up e-recording yet. It was a bit disappointing because thats the only reason I was on here is because it brought me here from that countys sight.
Thank you for your feedback, sorry we were not able to provide the service for you. Hope you have a great day.

My legal description exceeds the avaiable space in the one page Exhibit A...any way to add a second page as 'Exhibit A (continued)'?
It is not required to use the included exhibit page. Simply label your printed legal description as the appropriate exhibit.
