When the purchase price is fully paid, the seller delivers a Warranty Deed (or other deed) transferring legal title.

-For example, limited/poor credit history or nontraditional income.
Rural property or agricultural land is being sold, where traditional lending is limited.
The seller wants to sell quickly or avoid bank involvement.
Investment or estate sales where seller wants steady income and potential tax deferral.
Small-town or private party sales, common outside Sioux Falls or Rapid City.
It’s valid for both residential and commercial/agricultural property, as long as:

Now, I will be able to fill them out in the privacy of my home. Instructions were also included, how to file this new Deed, after I complete it and have it Notarized.

These guys saved the day! Very good at what they do and deliver AS ADVERTISED!! My county's recorder's office was closed to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the recorder's office did not offer the service I needed online. Attempting to close on a home the following day, I was in immediate need of a deed for property that I previously owned to provide to the underwriters for my pending loan. I thought I was dead in the water and would miss my next day closing date. Strolling the internet for options, I came upon DEEDS.COM. After reading the posted reviews, I thought I would give them a try. Within 10 minutes of placing my order, I received ALL the information I requested about the property I previously owned. Thank you DEEDS.COM for the prompt, courteous, and professional service. You guys are ROCK STARS!!! I closed on my new home.
Thank you so much for your kinds words Darryl, glad we were able to help.

The download of forms, etc. was easy and the guides that were provided were good, but more information would have been nice as to where to find tax map #, parcel #, and district mentioned in Exemptions from Property Transfer Fees (and Declaration of Consideration or Value.
