Creating my enhanced lifde estate deed was rather easy but I am not happy. After buying the 3 form package for about $29 and crating my legal form... was not happy with your disclaimer than you cannot guarantee the form will meet required legal standards. I was convinced you all knew what you're doing since the forms are supposedly specific to Polk county, Florida.

Herbert, thank you for your feedback.

Our deed forms are prepared to meet the statutory and recording requirements for the state listed, including common formatting and content requirements used by county recorders.

The disclaimer exists because we are not acting as your attorney and cannot evaluate each customer’s specific facts, property history, or intended use of the document. For that reason, we cannot guarantee that a document will meet every possible legal need or circumstance.

Many customers successfully prepare and record their deeds using these materials, but anyone needing legal advice about their particular situation should consult a licensed attorney.

These guys saved the day! Very good at what they do and deliver AS ADVERTISED!! My county's recorder's office was closed to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the recorder's office did not offer the service I needed online. Attempting to close on a home the following day, I was in immediate need of a deed for property that I previously owned to provide to the underwriters for my pending loan. I thought I was dead in the water and would miss my next day closing date. Strolling the internet for options, I came upon DEEDS.COM. After reading the posted reviews, I thought I would give them a try. Within 10 minutes of placing my order, I received ALL the information I requested about the property I previously owned. Thank you DEEDS.COM for the prompt, courteous, and professional service. You guys are ROCK STARS!!! I closed on my new home.

I was a little nervous about doing this, but it was very simple. I was thrilled that I could use the sheet that helped me fill out the form. That made it easy. I did like that you knew what the charge was going to be in the beginning, not like the other websites.
