The DOCUMENT AND INFORMATION WAS JUST WHAT I WANTED AND NEEDED. HOWEVER, NAVIGATING THE ON LINE PROCESS WAS A PROBLEM.. AT ONE POINT IT LOOKED LIKE I HAD PAID FOR THE PRODUCT AND LOST CONTACT WITH THE SYSTEM. I FINALLY GOT TO PRINT WHAT I PURCHASED. FOR SUCH I WOULD ONLY GIVE A FOUR STAR RATING.
Thank you, James. We're glad the documents and information met your needs, and we appreciate you pointing out the navigation issue. Feedback like this helps us improve the ordering experience. Thank you for your review and your business.

Some of the forms I ordered didn't have enough space for all of the information, but were useful as a guide for creating what I needed. Now I'll be trying the e-recording to see how that goes.
Thank you!

I ordered a Quit Claim Deed for my county. Once I read the detailed instructions and filled it out I submitted it to the local Register of Deeds and it was filed on the spot while I waited! Thank you, you made a difficult and expensive task easy (for a laymen with no knowledge) at little expense. Highly recommend your site!!!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Important: Click Download to save each PDF to your device. Open and complete the PDFs using Adobe Acrobat Reader (free). Get Adobe Acrobat Reader Browser PDF viewers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Mac Preview) may display fillable fields incorrectly. This information should be shared with the potential buyer BEFORE purchase. Messy formatting and a deeds.com advertisement on each page. I will not purchase from deeds.com again.
Paula, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. As the product wasn’t a good fit for you, we’ve canceled your order and provided a full refund so there’s no need for you to use the documents.

You form was good the only thing that did not work was the download to fill it out !!! I use a Mac system and maybe that's what the issue was. I filled it out by hand and it worked for the purpose .
Thanks for the kind words, Roman. Glad the form worked for you. For the fillable fields, the PDF opens best in a dedicated reader like Preview or Adobe Acrobat rather than inside a browser window, which can sometimes flatten them out. We appreciate your business.
