Identifies the parties
Describes the property
States that there is a contract to sell
May include closing date or conditions
Often omits purchase price or other confidential terms

The booklet is too wordy. Not concise enough for someone who is inexperienced at filling out your form. It would be nice to have a picture example of what you are talking about. When we got to the Registars office we found out they do not have a notary. Would have been nice to know before we went. The form asks for page and book which is no longer needed. So why have it on there?
Thank you, Marolyn, this is useful feedback. A completed sample is actually included with the form, and your note tells us we should make it easier to find and tie it more directly to the instructions, so we'll do that. We'll also add a "before you begin" checklist and a clearer note that the document needs to be notarized in advance, since recording offices don't provide notary service. On the book and page: that reference is required by the Utah statute this affidavit is filed under (§ 57-1-5.1) and still applies to older deeds recorded before counties moved to entry-number-only indexing around 2000. You enter whichever reference appears on your recorded deed and leave the rest blank. Appreciate you taking the time to write in.

in one of the reviews, the person said they wished that there was more room allowed for use in the grantor section. the reply was that they were sorry but there was only enough room for what was there considering margins, etc. that is not true. on the forms i downloaded there was plenty of extra room at the top of the page (about 2 inches) that was not being used.
Thank you!

Was warned by attorney that forms from internet have lots of mistakes. But after looking all over, took a chance on here. So far, I am satisfied, and actually happy that I got something that (I believe) meets my state and local requirements. Haven't filed the deed yet, or had to put it into effect, but being able to pick the local area, and have the relevant state law listed on the deed, gives me confidence. Also, got the whole package of possibly relevant forms, and a very good guide how to prep the deed with a sample completed deed - greatly appreciated!
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
