I filled out the deed, had it notarized, and recorded. No problems. I put this off for so long. Once I had the form it was recorded in one day.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

You dont really know what your buying until after you spend the money. Cant use any of them
Thank you for your feedback. Best practice is to know what you need before purchasing. Buying legal documents should not be a exploratory endeavor. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere.

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.
