Documents are ok but I needed to reword some of the verbiage and it cannot be edited without paying a monthly or annual membership. otherwise it is a very nice site.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

This would be a great form but I couldn’t tell what size the font was. Also, I didn’t know how to save it so I will have to type it all over again. I’m sure I did it incorrectly.
Your feedback is a crucial part of our dedication to ongoing improvement. Thank you for your insightful comments.

First time using Deeds.com. Downloaded the PDF forms for creating an Illinois Mortgage and Promissory Note. Filled them out, saved them, and printed them out. Going to send them to my Title Company for closing on a property. Save a bunch of money on not have to pay lawyer fees for creating the same legal documents that Deeds.com provided.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Signing up was easy and the form was amazing. The ability to type on it (I am on a MAC) was beyond my expectations, the ability to save a blank, save my two documents, save the instructions and sample was excellent. The documents are in the mail and we are hopefully they will be approved. Blessings,
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
