Questions answered? Let's get started!

It is the duty of the mortgagee/lender or assignee of mortgage to perform an entry of satisfaction, (When the indebtedness secured by a recorded mortgage is paid and there is no agreement for the making of future advances to be secured by the mortgage, the mortgagee or the mortgagee's assignee shall enter satisfaction or cause satisfaction of such mortgage to be entered of record forthwith, paying the required fee.)

The plaintiff in such action may recover any additional damages that the evidence in the case warrants.

I was not able to use the form after paying for it. The words in red would not let me type over them and I could not get a blank document. Useless.

Reply from Staff

Each forms package includes a blank form, a guide, and a completed example. The red text appears in the completed example to show how a finished document may look; the blank form is the editable document intended for customer use. Because our products are do-it-yourself legal forms, we canceled the order and payment when it was clear the customer was not able to identify and use the blank form included in the package.

In California, the recorder charges a $75 fee for EVERY PAGE of any document related to real estate, with a $225 maximum. So the easement deed this company made is 3 pages, when it could easily have fit in 2 pages (including the notary page). So they just cost me an extra $75. Do better!

Reply from Staff

Thanks for the feedback. One correction, because it matters for anyone reading this: California's $75 fee (SB 2, Government Code 27388.1) is charged per document title, not per page, and the $225 cap applies to transactions with multiple documents or titles. Page count only affects the base recording fee, which is $3 per additional page. A three-page easement deed carries the same $75 as a two-page one would. Recording fees are set and collected by the county, not by Deeds.com, and the county recorder's published fee schedule is the place to confirm what you were charged.

Quick and easy. Would recommend this site to everyone. Deed was sent to the site and recorded at my local county within 24 hours. Website could be set up better. Not labeled well for us that is not computer savvy.

I was in despair as I needed to file two (2) very important documents with the County. Due to Covid the office was closed and my only recourse was to E-Fie with a service provider. I was fortunate enough to hear about Deeds.com. They were specific, courteous, patient and most of all productive. My documents will take awhile for the final filing but that is because the County happens to have a slow turn around time. Otherwise, I am now relieved that this part is over. Thank you Deeds.com. You are awesome.
