Intimidating subject made exceedingly simple.

Laryn A. 5 out of 5 stars
Very happy with the beneficiary deed forms packet. It was helpful to have an example of a properly filled out form. The only suggestion would be is to show where the exemption code should be placed on the form.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Seems easy enough, may have downloaded forms I don't need, however I'm hoping that these are the only I'll need. Did a lot of research and Deeds.com looks to be the best for anything you need. I am very happy at finally being able to find the forms I was looking for so easily. Thank you

It was a little confusing to retrieve the documents. I was waiting for an email, but then I went toyour portal and I saw the messages and the document.
Thank you for your feedback Frederico.

Price seemed high (~$28) for just some forms (especially because we may not actually use the forms), but it beats navigating the Hawaii state and Honolulu county websites for forms. It would be better if a single button push would download all 7 or 8 forms.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
Ron D. 3 out of 5 stars
The State form I chose was valid and accurate. However, I found the ability to enter information was inadequate and difficult. Converted the form to a Word document and was then able to enter the information I needed to.
Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us improve. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

We used this document in 2018 and it was acceptable to Jackson County Missouri. It worked and is valid. Very happy with the product.
Thanks for the kind words, glad to see you back again. Have a great day!
