The documents were received on time. There is one thing I would like to ask besides adding exhibits for spaces that put information is there a way to adjust the template a little to just add maybe another line or two without having to put this on an exhibit or additional page?. I would like to thank you for the documents everything was so professional thank you

Reply from Staff

Thank you, Mary. Glad the documents arrived on time and worked well for you.

On your question: the forms are formatted to meet county recording requirements, so the spacing in each section is fixed. When the information you need to include runs longer than the space provided, attaching it as an exhibit is the accepted method and recorders handle it routinely. It won’t affect how the document is reviewed or recorded.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.

After some initial general confusion -- (we sold a small piece of land privately and therefore do not typically prepare such documentation (!)) -- we were able to purchase and download all forms from Deeds.com and understand how to complete it/them. The help is all there, we just needed to read and study it - the "Example" helped alot. We were able to complete the Document per your online form(s) and then take it to be signed/notarized - and take the completed paper document to the Registry -- and it is now all registered and we are All Set. Took the morning (only). THANK YOU. A wonderful tool!!
