Bought a transfer on death deed form and it worked great. Easy to fill out and record with the County. Got some helpful information from the county recorders office before filling out the form. I found out that I could use one deed for 2 properties. Saved me money not having to pay fees for 2 deeds.
We are delighted to have been of service. Thank you for the positive review!

I haven't taken the forms to our county clerk for recording yet so not sure they contain all needed information in the order needed but forms were easy to read, easy to save and with well documented instructions available. Thank you

form worked great but was over priced for such a simple form , should be around $10 and most people could easily create this themselves.
Hi William, thank you for your review. We’re glad the form worked well for you. We understand it may seem simple on the surface, but Transfer on Death Deeds—especially in New York—require precise language and adherence to both state and county-level rules. Our forms are attorney-prepared, regularly reviewed for legal compliance, and include helpful instructions to reduce the risk of costly filing errors. We appreciate your feedback and hope the document serves its purpose smoothly.

Had a difficult time finding my download after purchase. Thankfully I had printed the form and had. However it was read only and I'm not experienced enough to be able to change that. So I went into my word program and typed in the form. I should be able to use it for my purpose. Just glad I was finally able to find it after hours of searching online. I'm in my 70's and not real computer intelligent which may have been part of the problem
Sorry to hear of your struggle Margaret, we will try harder to make our forms easier for everyone.

After a little glitch due to heavy volume at the County Recorder, my document was recorded. County Recorder was closed to public access at the office (due to the coronavirus issues) so all documents were either mailed to them or sent in electronically. Deeds.com was very efficient at their end with very quick responses to my questions and concerns. I would definitely use their services again.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Deeds.com was quick, efficient, and cost effective. Deeds.com works with individuals where I found other companies only offer services to title companies, settlement companies, etc. Thank you Deeds.com!
