Quick and easy to use. I was able to download the Transfer on Death Deed form to my computer so that I can read through and fill them out at a later time. That made it convenient and "no pressure". The complimentary guide and completed example that came with the form was also very helpful.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I found all the forms I needed to complete a Quit Claim Deed on Deeds.com. All the forms are available for download to fill in on my laptop computer. So far the experience has been very good. My only issue would be that the Quit Claim instructions could be more thorough and easier to understand. I am guessing that the State of New Jersey made up the instructions? Unfortunately this has cost me a huge amount of extra time to parse out EXACTLY the terms I need to write on the Quit Claim Deed form. I haven't started the Tax Forms, but hope they will be more straightforward. In general, I DO recommend Deeds.com!
Thanks for the recommendation, Sharon. We appreciate you flagging the New Jersey instructions, and we'll review them with an eye toward making things clearer and more straightforward. Feedback like yours is how we keep improving.

The document had all the information needed but could have been presented with a more professional look for the price.
We appreciate you highlighting the balance between compliance and presentation. While our main focus is on the legal correctness and statutory compliance of the documents, we also strive to present this information in a clear and accessible manner.

Forms are fine, but the inability to download a completed form is not. Nor is the ability to convert to another format. Everytime I went to download, the form erased. I didn't have a printer available, so everything I did was to waste.
Thank you for your feedback Duncan. The blank forms should be downloaded first and then completed on your computer.
