Hi, I must have done something wrong. I need a QuitClaim North Carolina Dare County form. I don't need the Warranty Claim that appeared in my download list. Can I exchange forms?
As a one time courtesy we have canceled the order and payment you made for the warranty deed in error. Have a wonderful day.

Thank you for the feedback. We will take a look at the date field to see if there are any issues. Have a great day!

The beneficiary deed was acceptable to the county clerk and my notarized official deed was mailed to me. The Missouri-based deed met with official approval so all is well in the land that time forgot.
Thank you!

I thought the forms were reasonably priced, the instructions included in the packet were thorough, and the examples helpful. Thank you for the additional CDR forms too. I contacted the Recorder's office via email with a question and Jennifer Bowser answered promptly. Job well done! However, when I delivered the deed and Real Property Transfer Declaration to the Clerk's office in Lafayette, the clerk was unfamiliar with the Declaration document being submitted and it took some time to convince her to submit the form without charging the recording fee. She even tried to phone the recorder's office for clarification, but no one answered. There then was an additional form at that office that I had to complete called Recording Request/Transmittal Form. I would suggest including that form with instructions in your on-line packet to speed up the process when a Deed is delivered to the County Clerk's satellite office. I do not expect every clerk to know all the particulars of recording requirements but a little knowledge wouldn't hurt.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
