The General Mineral Deed in Ohio transfers oil, gas, and mineral rights from the grantor to the grantee. THIS IS NOT A LEASE. There are no Exceptions or Reservations included.

The transfer includes the oil, gas and other minerals of every kind and nature. It also transfers any and all rights to receive royalties, overriding royalties, net profits interests or other payments out of or with respect to those oil, gas and other minerals. The Grantor can stipulate the percentage of Mineral Rights the Grantee will receive and is made subject to any rights existing under any valid and subsisting oil and gas lease or leases of record.

This general mineral deed gives the grantee the right to access, for the purpose of mining, drilling, exploring, operating and developing said lands for oil, gas, and other minerals, and storing handling, transporting and marketing of such.

In this document the Grantor Warrants and will defend said Title to Grantee. Use of this document has a permanent effect on your rights to the property, if you are not completely sure of what you are executing seek the advice of a legal professional.

Good after I figured out the form process. Hopefully I won't be charged for two as I redid the request thinking I might have made a mistake in the first request.

The Personal Representatives Deed is definitely a helpful document for my files. I find it need just a little tweaking by deeds.com , There should be more space for the legal description. I did see in the FAQ's you recommend putting it in the Exhibit and this is what I did. Also I couldn't get the year to be accepted and had to write it in. These are just some minor suggestions, on the whole I was grateful to find this document. Thank you.

I have to admit this process was a scary one but you have made it very clear and simple to follow along with. I felt their virtual hand holding, that is how user friendly it is. Thank you for being top notch.

The form is easy to use. However, the quit claim deed form seems to be for parcel of land, because the word "real property" is not in the form.

My legal description exceeds the avaiable space in the one page Exhibit A...any way to add a second page as 'Exhibit A (continued)'?

Reply from Staff

It is not required to use the included exhibit page. Simply label your printed legal description as the appropriate exhibit.

I couldn't even look for a deed because the website said that deed/title searching wasn't available. Very disappointed about it.

Reply from Staff

I'm sorry to hear that you had a disappointing experience with the website's deed/title searching feature. It can be frustrating when a feature you were hoping to use isn't available.
We do hope that you found what you were looking for elsewhere.
