I liked getting the forms but I was charged twice for some reason. I'm not sure what happened with that. Can you reimburse me? Thank you. Lanette
Thank you for your feedback Lanette. In review, it looks like your first payment was declined, second one was approved and processed. What you are seeing is one payment and a hold placed by your financial institution for the declined attempt. We are not sure why they do this but the hold usually falls off after a few day depending on their policy. If you have further questions about this you can contact your financial institution and they will explain. Have a great day.

ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW. I AM SO GLAD THAT SOMEONE THOUGHT OF THIS OPROCESS FOR NON-TITLE COMPANIES, SMALL COMPANIES, ETC. I REALLY APPRECIATED THE SERVICE WHEN I RECORDED MY FIRST SET OF DOCS HERE. THEY WERE A MESS AND I HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS. AGAIN THANK YOU!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I saved a ton of money doing it on my own versus through legal counsel. When I took it to the auditor/recorder today, there was absolutely no problems.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

It's worth the money. I would like to have seen a variety of examples showing different scenarios for completing a quitclaim deed.
Thank you!

The actual transfer of deed form seems to be the only one not fillable in Adobe. Seems odd.
Thank you!

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!

Pleased with efficiency and expediency of website. Added value is the respective county requirements for Florida. I needed a quitclaim deed between family members. Highly recommended. We hope to record signed and executed document next week in Florida. Thank you.

Messaging system should reach customer email. It took me a couple of days to find out the processor had messaged me. A customer notification should be implemented for every message left in the account.
Thank you!
