Questions answered? Let's get started!
The Demand for Payment form is used by unpaid individual claimants to demand payment of their claim on an owner who is authorized to withhold funds under 53.083(a) of the Texas Property Code. The demand form also provides notice to the owner that all or part of the claim has accrued under Texas Code 53.053 or is past due under the agreement between the parties.
The claimant must also send a copy of the demand to the original contractor. If the original contractor intends to dispute the claim, he must give the owner written notice no later than the 30th day after the day he receives the copy of the demand. Failure to respond in a timely fashion implies approval of the demand and the owner must then pay the claim.
The Demand for Payment identifies the parties, the project, and relevant dates, services/materials, and fees. It is a required step in securing an eventual mechanic's lien on the owner's property if the claim remains unpaid after demand is sent.
The form does not require a notary seal or other verification, nor is it filed in the local land records. Instead, deliver the demand for payment via certified or registered mail, with a return receipt requested.
Each case is unique, and the mechanic's lien law in Texas can be complicated. Contact an attorney for complex situations, with specific questions about sending a demand for payment, or any other issue related to mechanic's liens.
Important: Your property must be located in Travis County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.
This Demand for Payment meets all recording requirements specific to Travis County.

Thank you!

The process went smoothly and gave me what I needed. As an improvement, I would recommend that deeds.com sends an email when there is a new message in the portal. I didn't get any updates and had to log in to track progress each time.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Very easy to use. However, the "sample" filled in red ink did not print for me to refer to. Is that the correct desire, not to print?
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Loved every step of the process, from the detail explanation of the services/products provided, to the inclusive packet that comes with my purchase of the trust certification form.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

Messaging system should reach customer email. It took me a couple of days to find out the processor had messaged me. A customer notification should be implemented for every message left in the account.
Thank you!

Being new at this, the system was somewhat difficult to understand at first. It took a couple of tries before I got it. It seems to be somewhat slow as well. However, it's a wonderful idea to have documents recorded from the comfort of your home, especially in the times that we are in with COVID19. I definitely don't mind paying the fee which I thought was reasonable.
Thank you!

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.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I was quoted $525 to do the exact same thing from Deeds.com for only $25. Seems like a no brainer to me!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
