These forms are used for financing residential property, condominiums, rental units, small commercial, vacant land, and planned unit developments. They include special provisions and exhibit pages making them adaptable and flexible for unique situations. Ohio recognizes dower rights, which means that if a married man or woman owns an interest in real property, his or her spouse holds a 1/3 interest in the property, Review Oh. statute 2103.02. Dower rights can become problematic when it comes to mortgages. Oftentimes, banks require a release of dower if only one spouse is on the promissory note. Otherwise, if the paying spouse defaults, a spouse may be able to enforce their dower rights if the spouse is not on the deed. This mortgage can release rights of dower if applicable to the situation. These forms have stringent default terms, typical uses - lender who is financing investment property, owner financing, etc.

Trace A. 5 out of 5 stars
Deeds.com had much better and fuller information than any other help i found (90% complete vs 60 % complete); they tout how up-to-date they are on all the counties in the country and the idiosyncrasies of each county's forms and procedures; but some minor points of the info i needed were missing or confusing. Including that they sold me on e-Recording my deed through them, only to find out after i had done all the prep for that, that they had failed to tell me upfront (or i missed it somehow) that the county i was dealing with did not yet accept online recording. So, they were by far the best i found, but not 100%.
Thank you for your honest and thorough feedback Trace. We will review your concerns carefully in an effort to improve our services. Hope you have an amazing day.
