Questions answered? Let's get started!

An easement is the non-possessory and non-ownership right of one person to use the real property of another person for a specific use. The specific instrument that creates such right is the easement deed. An easement deed in Kansas can be created for a variety of purposes: rights of way, access points, solar easements, and so on. Easements can be created by deed, by necessity, or by order of law.

Every instrument that conveys any estate or interest created by any lease or easement involving wind or solar resources and technologies to produce and generate electricity should include the requirements listed in section 58-2272 of the Kansas Annotated Statutes. Conservation easements are defined in 58-3810 of the Kansas Annotated Statutes. Easement deeds are subject to the recording and conveying rules of other real property instruments.

As a real property instrument, an easement deed must be signed and acknowledged by the grantor or by the grantor's agent or attorney in accordance with the uniform law on notarial acts and with KSA 58-2216 (58-2209). An easement deed should be acknowledged before a person authorized by the uniform law on notarial acts to perform notarial acts, or, if acknowledged in Kansas, by a county clerk, register of deeds, or mayor or clerk of an incorporated city (58-2211). If a grantor dies before acknowledging the deed or if for any other reason the grantor cannot be procured in order to make the acknowledgement or, if the grantor refuses to acknowledge the easement deed, the proof of the execution and delivery of the deed can be made by any competent testimony (58-2214). A certificate or proof of acknowledgement can be given under seal or otherwise, according to the method by which the courts or officers granting the same usually authenticate their notarial acts (58-2217).

An unrecorded easement deed in writing will be valid between the parties to the deed and those who have actual notice thereof, until it is recorded by the register of deeds in the county where the property is located (58-2223). An easement deed that has been certified and recorded in the manner provided by statute, will, from the time of filing with the register of deeds for record, impart notice to all persons of the contents of the deed; and all subsequent purchasers and mortgagees will be deemed to purchase with notice (58-2222).

PDF fields change font sizes leading to an unprofessional-appearing printed page. The examples for "Convey to" section don't include how to specify just one person instead of a married couple. Maybe that is simple but it would help to spell it out in an example. Haven't submitted to County Recorder yet, so will find out if it is acceptable.

Thank you for the feedback Brian.

The font issue is caused by using a PDF viewer other than Adobe Acrobat Reader. Our form fields are set to a uniform 12-point font, but non-Adobe viewers often render form fields inconsistently. Opening and printing the form with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader will resolve that.

Regarding the examples, that's a fair point, we'll look at expanding them.

Could not give me any deed history prior to 1986, when our company bought the property, so this was a bust.

I had worked for a couple of months sending things back and forth to the county and still had no success. I decided to use deeds.com and it was all done in a few hours. Such a relief! While I find this to be wrong and the county should work with property owners as well as they work with third parties, I was still grateful for this service.

Process was easy. The instructions for TOD and a sample completed form was very helpful. E-recording of deed saved a trip to the county building and well worth the very reasonable charge.

The form was short, and explainable.. so that is my feed back on that...but we have not received anything back to actually see if we filled the form out correctly. So I definitely can not say if I'm satisfied with it or not until I know that it is approved. I would recommend Coos County web site for Forms to people. Thank you.

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.
