Questions answered? Let's get started!

Use this form to release a portion of property secured by a deed of trust and promissory note. Example: borrower has financed 4 lots for $100,000.00 which has since been paid down to a balance of $25,000.00. Borrower approaches Lender/grantee and would like the lender to release lot #3 because he has a buyer. The lender might think, ok- he will owe me $25,000.00 on the remaining 3 lots, I consider this a good risk. The same can also be applicable to condominiums, apartments, parcels, etc.

(It is lawful for any lien creditor to record a certificate of partial satisfaction of any one or more of the separate pieces or parcels of property covered by such lien. It shall also be lawful for any such creditor to record a certificate of partial satisfaction of any part of the real estate covered by such lien if a plat of such part or a deed of such part is recorded in the clerk's office and a cross-reference is made in the certificate of partial satisfaction to the book and page where the plat or deed of such part is recorded. Such certificate of partial satisfaction may be accomplished in manner and form prescribed in this chapter for making certificates of satisfaction, except that the creditor, or his duly authorized agent, shall make an affidavit to the clerk or in such certificate that such creditor is at the time of making such satisfaction the legal holder of the obligation, note, bond, or other evidence of debt, secured by such lien, and when made in conformity with the provisions of this chapter such partial satisfaction shall be as valid and binding as a proper release deed duly executed for the same purpose.)

I thought the instructions could have been a little better. I didn't know how to do this if the spouses are married but living in separate residences. Also I didn't understand the "Prior Instrument Reference". That should be explained better. Very sketchy instructions.

There is not enough room on the form to describe my property which was taken directly from the previous deed. Other than that worked as expected.

This site was recommended by my County's Clerks office website. Let me tell you when I received my specific State and County's Quit Claim Deed forms from Deeds.com, every conceivable form that could be needed in addition to the full instructions, and a sample filled out form, I was impressed (five stars) and made things so easy for me to feel confident in my legal activity on a land transaction.

Not user friendly despite additional guide. There are other products out there that are superior. A waste of $20.

Sorry to hear that Virginia. Your order and payment has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

Forms were spot on and able to save over $100 by not going to an attorney to complete the same documents. There were templates on how forms are supposed to be completed. You just need a notary to sign.

LOVE THIS!! I am a REALTORand from time to time I have had to take documents for filing. I'm so glad I invested some time online researching eFiling services. The first few search results that populated required an expensive annual or monthly subscription. Luckily I continued to scroll and found Deeds.com. No annual or monthly subscription required. Just pay per use. I uploaded a ROL late one night and Deed.com had it eFiled the very next morning!!! They keep you updated throughout the process via email notifications which you click on the link provided in the email that directs you to your online portal to view the status and once your documents have been filed you can immediately download the filed of record documents including the receipt from the county in which the documents were filed. SO SIMPLE, CONVENIENT, & QUICK-THANK YOU DEEDS.com!!!
