Acknowledging a Satisfied Lien Claim in Iowa
Lien claimants are required to file a certificate of satisfaction under Iowa law when an underlying lien has been paid off or otherwise fully satisfied and the owner has made written demand for its discharge. The certificate instructs the clerk of records to strike the lien from the record upon a sworn statement by the claimant that the lien should be discharged.
When a mechanic's lien is satisfied by payment of the claim, the claimant must acknowledge the liens satisfaction upon the mechanic's lien book, or otherwise in writing, and, if the claimant neglects to do so for thirty (30) days after demand in writing is personally served upon the claimant, the claimant shall forfeit and pay twenty-five dollars to the owner or contractor, and be liable to any person injured to the extent of the injury. I.C. 572.23(1).
If acknowledgment of satisfaction is not filed within thirty (30) of the demand in writing, the party serving the demand or causing the demand to be served may file for record with the clerk of the district court a copy of the demand with proofs of service attached and endorsed and, in case of service by publication, a personal affidavit that personal service could not be made within the State of Iowa. I.C. 572.23(2).
Upon completion of the requirements for filing the certificate of satisfaction, the record of the lien's discharge will operate as a constructive notice to all parties of the due forfeiture and cancellation of the lien. Id.

I transferred my property to my child when I moved to another state. I don't know what I would have done without Deeds.com. I was able to find all of the forms and instructions for the state where the property was located. Highly recommend!
Thank you, Tammy. We’re honored to have been part of such an important transition for you. We’re glad the forms and state-specific instructions made the process clear and manageable. We truly appreciate your recommendation!

Thank you so much for providing simple but very significant documents one can basically do PRO SE, without any additional huge counsel expenses and yet be legitimate enough to officially file them as state law allows and extends to basic documents processing and filings. Thank you so much for the professional documents provided as they do the proper job. MP
Thank you for the kind words Maribel. Glad we were able to help!

tl;dr - Bookmarked and anticipating using this site for years to come. My justification for rating 5/5 1. Provide intuitive method for requesting property records. 2. Cost for records *seems reasonable. 3. They clearly state that interested parties could gather these records at more affordable costs through the county (which was more confusing for an inexperienced person such as myself). I mean, I appreciate and respect this level of honesty. *I didn't shop around too much because it was difficult for me to find other services that could deliver CA property records.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

The deed forms seem to be what I need but I am unable to save anything that I do with them. I ask for some assistance in this matter but did not get any.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

After receiving the forms online and reviewing them, it was very easy to fill this out and the additional information was very helpful. Saved a lot of money by not having to use a lawyer/paralegal to do this simple task. Will definitely use Deeds.com in the future for any further needs. Thank you

The e-recording service was invaluable. This was my first experience recording a document in any capacity. The feedback I received was useful, concise, and presented kindly. I cannot imagine having to try to record by mail, or without the guidance that was provided to me.
We are delighted to have been of service. Thank you for the positive review!
