I bought the Beneficiary Deed package for Arizona. The instructions were clear and I had no problem filling out the needed forms. My deed was recorded this afternoon. Thanks so much for your excellent forms.

Perfect quitclaim form. Easy to fill in with the required information and all the required information has a place (no easy feat in our county!). It is helpful that they include exhibit pages for larger blocks of information (our legal is 2 pages long). Great job folks!

Although I am sure that the Quit Claim form was acceptable for my county, I felt that it was not formatted in the manor that I have seen while viewing the other deeds recorded. So that forms that I received were not useful to me.
