The personal attention and the ease of use is beyond any other service I have used. Thank you for making my work so much easier.
Thank you for your positive words! We’re thrilled to hear about your experience.

We had hoped, as this was direct through our State recorder's office, State-specific data would be pre-filled in. Also there is no help when transferring the home title from a Revocable Trust to the living Trustee and new spouse (no example given, no help for which code to use). And the example doesn't match the prior deed revision format submitted by our attorney. So, not the best experience. We may have to get an attorney involved...what we were hoping to avoid
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Great service! The example completed form and instructions provided by Deeds.com were extremely helpful for properly filling out the blank form they provided. After completing my form and getting it notarized, I e-filed it to my county clerk's office and it was approved right away with no issues. The entire process was well worth the price and I'm very happy with the results.
Thanks, Thomas. First-try acceptance is the goal every time, and we're glad yours went that way. We appreciate your business.

Best Way EVER to record a warranty deed! It was nice to not have to drive anywhere and find the facility closed or "unable to process due to covid19 and buildings being closed". The correspondence between me and deeds.com was very timely in our back and forth email correspondence, and the processing was all finished in a timely manner. Totally worth the extra $15 that I paid in addition to the recording fee. I would use this again and again. My time and the efficiency of the job completed is worth the money.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
