I was very pleased with the service and the product. All the extras were a nice addition to my order. With the example and instructions, I was able to fill out my correction deed correctly. I filed it and it was accepted with zero reservations by my clerk and recorder's office. The expected result (which was to remove a name from the current deed) happened almost immediately. I definitely recommend deeds.com .

I have been researching for months to figure out how to remove deceased owner of property with right of survivorship in Florida. The County Clerk was not helpful. They refer you to get legal advice which is expensive. So hopefully by completing these forms I can actually complete the task. And would be helpful to be reassured that this is all I need to complete overdue task. I was hesitant to pay, but I believe this is legit. If so- a great Thank you.

Very disappointed that you had certain documents but did not have the accompanying documents needed to complete the transfer. I also had issues with the documents not allowing you to fill in the pages... example the document was prefilled in as so ... Page 1 of_____ but you could not fill in the blank... I tried reaching out to your customer service, but they had no solution for me. So, I had to write in the page, which didn't look professional. I think I could have gotten documents just as good for free if I'd research a little longer.

Thank you for your feedback, Nancy.

The Virginia Transfer on Death Deed and the Virginia Transfer on Death Beneficiary Affidavit are separate documents and are offered individually because many customers only need one, depending on their situation. In your case, the affidavit was later ordered separately.

Regarding the page numbering (“Page 1 of ___”), that field is intentionally left blank. The total number of pages is not known until the document is finalized, signed, notarized, and all attachments (such as exhibits or legal descriptions) are included. It is standard practice to complete that portion by hand at execution so the final page count accurately reflects the recorded document.

We are unable to locate a customer service inquiry associated with your order, but we are always glad to assist when contacted directly.

We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best with your transfer.
