Are there any recurring fees involved?
No. Nothing to cancel, no memberships, no recurring fees.
An easement can be created by a grant or deed, by implication, or by prescription. An easement created by a deed should be in writing and should define the terms and scope of the agreement. This type of real property instrument creates a non-possessory interest in land that allows one person to use another's property for a specific purpose.
As an interest in real property, an easement deed in Vermont is required to be signed and acknowledged by the grantor before recording can take place. The acknowledgment of a deed in Vermont can be taken before a town clerk, notary public, master, county clerk, or judge or register of probate. Acknowledgments taken before a notary public will be valid without an official seal being affixed to the notary's signature (27 V.S.A. Statute 341a). Vermont recognizes acknowledgments taken out of state if the acknowledgments are taken according to the laws of such state (379).
Real estate documents in Vermont are recorded in the town or city where the property is located. This is different from many other states that have a county recording system. Recording an easement deed will impart constructive notice of the contents of the instrument. Unless an easement deed is acknowledged and recorded, it will not be effective to hold such lands against any person but the grantor and his or her heirs (342).

It turned out that I was able to search for what I needed on the local county website, which is what your site suggested be tried. I was impressed with your honesty and practical instructions for searches your site gave. I'm pretty sure I'll be back.
Thank you for your feedback James. Glad to hear we were able to steer you in the right direction.

The Quit Claim Deed for the state of Ohio worked for me, saving me the cost of an attorney doing it. O.K., maybe that wouldn't have amounted to more than a few hundred dollars, but anywhere I thought I could save money (and learn something new on top of it) is something I want to do.
That said, be forwarned. While I'm not an attorney I'm not averse to spending many hours researching the lingo found in this kind of form and thoroughly understanding exactly how everything has to be filled in.
I should add that my ex-wife and I remain friends and she was the one giving me the property/house (thus, technically I filled out the forms on her behalf). Because there was no personal conflict, it made it easier to undertake.
Lastly, what others have said about the county office where you must file a Quit Claim Deed not being helpful, that's true in the sense that they do not want to be instructing non-attorneys on filling out the necessary forms. I did take a preliminary draft set of the forms to the county office but was VERY CAREFUL about explaining that I only needed a couple of questions answered about procedure for submitting the final documents. They were helpful once I made it clear I wasn't asking them for "legal advice". And their help was critical as the final submittals requires stopping at three different offices (MapDocuments, Auditor and finally the Recorder's office).
So I say thank you to Deeds.com. Their service for the Quit Claim Deed was invaluable.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I was very pleased with the ease in use of the forms. I suggest making sure the sample copy is totally aligned with the exact same parts. I was a little confused about the portion "Subject to.."
It was easy to make corrections, additions, etc because the page remained open, and I didn't have to re=open the forms continuously.
Thank you!
