Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Lis Pendens is filed when an action affects (title or possession of real property.) Filed by the plaintiff [party initiating action] (at the time of filing the complaint) and defendant [party defending action] (at the time of filing his or her answer, if affirmative relief is claimed in the answer.) The Lis Pendens document is recorded at the County Recorder's Office, where the property is located. NRS 14.010
The Lis Pendens Notice contains:
1. (the names of the parties)
2. (the object of the action)
3. (a description of the property in that county affected thereby)
4. (the defendant shall also in the notice state the nature and extent of the relief claimed in the answer) NRS 14.010
The Notice of Pendency may be indexed in the same court as the pending case. Generally speaking, except in situations prescribed in NRS 14.017 a Lis Pendens is considered constructive notice to would be purchasers or lien holders once recorded. NRS 14.010
(Nevada LP Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

Pretty good promissory note...but unable to delete some of the not needed stuff. Fill in blanks are fine but not all the template language is appropriate in my situation
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The staff at Deeds.com was very patient and ensured the deed was in the correct format for recording. Had I tried to record it myself, it would have been rejected, as I did not have the home address for the 2 witnesses. I would definitely recommend deeds.com
Thanks for the kind words, Daniel. Witness address requirements catch a lot of people off guard. Glad we could get everything squared away before it hit the recorder's desk. We appreciate the recommendation.

I did not like the size of the Warranty Deed form which took 2 pages to print. It should be no larger than 8 1/2 by 14 inches. I did not like that I could not reformat it to be smaller, could not eliminate unused lines, could not delete the excessive 4 signature lines, could not copy or paste into text editor. Very unsatisfactory rating.
Thank you for your feedback Michael. Unfortunately we don't make the requirements, we only make the documents to be compliant with the requirements. Have a great day!
