All is well that ends well and this form service seemed to work quite smoothly, even though my printer gives me fits at times, having to hand feed the blank paper.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

My E-deed was not excepted by the county, so I had to snail mail the documents to the recorders office. Will probably not use this site again, as it did not fulfill my purpose, but would recommend to those who do not have complicated forms.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Process is easy but system would not accept 3 different credit cards on first day. No phone number to call. Sent message and response was all 3 cards must have been declined. However, next day one of those cards went through with no problem.
Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately we have no control over which payment get approved or declined.

I was so happy I found a way to register my deed electronically! The county I live in only does e-file through vendors who service law firms and large volume documents. I had everything done electronically only to hit a brick wall doing warp speed when it came to this last part. So far everything is going super smooth and very easy. The price is worth it to be able to get this deed done because I'm doing a life estate deed to my late boyfriends daughter. She's getting married soon and this is my gift to her since her daddy can't be here. Thanks Deeds.com This means a lot, and I plan on bringing my business back provided everything finishes well. I will definitely follow up soon!
Thank you, Calida. We’re glad we could help make the electronic recording step easier, especially for something so meaningful. We appreciate your trust in Deeds.com and look forward to helping whenever you need us again.
