The General Mineral Deed in Illinois transfers oil, gas, and mineral rights from the grantor to the grantee. THIS IS NOT A LEASE. There are no Exceptions or Reservations included.
The transfer includes the oil, gas and other minerals of every kind and nature. It also transfers any and all rights to receive royalties, overriding royalties, net profits interests or other payments out of or with respect to those oil, gas and other minerals. The Grantor can stipulate the percentage of Mineral Rights the Grantee will receive and is made subject to any rights existing under any valid and subsisting oil and gas lease or leases of record.
This general mineral deed gives the grantee the right to access, for the purpose of mining, drilling, exploring, operating and developing said lands for oil, gas, and other minerals, and storing handling, transporting and marketing of such.
In this document the Grantor Warrants and will defend said Title to Grantee. Use of this document has a permanent effect on your rights to the property, if you are not completely sure of what you are executing seek the advice of a legal professional.

The website worked fine and I would have been happy to pay the extra money except the deed I needed was "not available". Ended up calling the courthouse anyway.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
David W. 5 out of 5 stars
Great examples on how to fill out the quitclaim deed, but no info on how to fill out the cover sheet.
Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us improve. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

It would have been a lot better if I could have downloaded ALL at once, as a package.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
ROBIN C. 5 out of 5 stars
The process was very easy but I did not realize before I paid to get this form , that I could have gotten it free from Tulsa county clerks office. Other than that, it was fine.
Thank you for the honest feedback, Robin, and we're glad the process was easy for you. You're right that the Tulsa County Clerk publishes a free transfer on death deed form, and we'd never want anyone to feel they overpaid. Our version isn't that same blank, though: it adds an alternate beneficiary designation so the property still passes as you intend if your first choice doesn't survive you, it's built to handle one or two owners, and it comes with a plain-language guide and a completed example. We appreciate your business.

Using the service is very quick and easy. The staff was very attentive, knowledgeable, professional and followed up promptly, and kept me informed regarding the status of my package.
Thank you, Stephen! We appreciate your feedback and are glad our team made the process smooth and efficient for you.

The booklet is too wordy. Not concise enough for someone who is inexperienced at filling out your form. It would be nice to have a picture example of what you are talking about. When we got to the Registars office we found out they do not have a notary. Would have been nice to know before we went. The form asks for page and book which is no longer needed. So why have it on there?
Thank you, Marolyn, this is useful feedback. A completed sample is actually included with the form, and your note tells us we should make it easier to find and tie it more directly to the instructions, so we'll do that. We'll also add a "before you begin" checklist and a clearer note that the document needs to be notarized in advance, since recording offices don't provide notary service. On the book and page: that reference is required by the Utah statute this affidavit is filed under (§ 57-1-5.1) and still applies to older deeds recorded before counties moved to entry-number-only indexing around 2000. You enter whichever reference appears on your recorded deed and leave the rest blank. Appreciate you taking the time to write in.

EZ to use program....was able to print all forms ordered. I expect to go back to to use recording ability. Instructions are easily followed...would be nice to have confirmation included but they are available to purchase. Hope for successful recording of TOD affidavit. Pretty good value...attorney quoted well over the price I paid for package.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Promissory note guidelines instruction No. 1 has misspelled Principle [sic]. Promissory note blank form number 1(c) the formatting of the P&I payment is not correct.
Thank you for pointing this out, Paul. We appreciate the careful feedback and will review the instruction typo and the formatting issue in section 1(c) so they can be corrected where needed.

Experience was very positive. It's very easy to use and I like the chat/feedback feature. It almost doubles the recording fees that is a little expensive but otherwise it works great.
We truly value your business and appreciate your review.
