Works ok but could have more specific information. My wife and I both own the Quit Claim property, should we both sign as Grantors?

I was informed that a quit Claim Deed that I had submitted, did not meet county requirements. I ordered the correct form and was surprised that the form included instructions and a sample "completed" form for me to follow. I found it al very helpful. Thank you !!!

The form was easy enough to purchase but I ended up not needing it. No fault of Deeds.com, but it was of no value to me.
