Waiting for response to questions about TOD deed. Language doesn't accommodate more than one Grantor and user cannot edit language.

Reply from Staff

Peter, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry our form didn't meet your needs. We've issued a full refund for your order. Please note that our forms are designed for common transfer scenarios, and we're unable to provide legal advice or guidance on how to complete them. If your situation involves multiple grantors or other complexities, we'd recommend consulting with a local real estate attorney who can ensure your deed is properly drafted for your specific circumstances. We wish you the best.

I just completed my first deed filing and I’m very happy with the experience. The deeds staff was extremely supportive and helpful in guiding me through the learning curve of being my first filing without legal assistance. They saved me a ton in legal fees.
