I was introduced to Deeds.com from my title company. I wanted the title company to do a courtesy recording for me and they suggested Deeds.com. Best suggestion in a while. The interface to use the website was seemlessly easy. The communication with the service staff was thorough and prompt. After the initial verification process (which the photo app was a little tricky), everything was easy. Will use them again.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

Easier than I had expected. Was looking for the 'I have to get information that I don't understand' part which never appeared.

As always, amazing forms and information. A must have for anyone doing it themselves. Everything is available to make it happen but if you need a lot of hand holding you might want to look into a more full service option.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
