Are there any recurring fees involved?
No. Nothing to cancel, no memberships, no recurring fees.
Under the West Virginia Statutes, the beneficiary of an interest in property may renounce the gift, either in part or in full (W. Va. Code 42-6-1 to 42-6-19 Uniform Disclaimer of Property Interests Act). Note that the option to disclaim is only available to beneficiaries who have not acted in any way to indicate acceptance or ownership of the interest ( 42-6-13).
The disclaimer must be in writing and include a description of the interest, a declaration of intent to disclaim all or a defined portion of the interest, and be signed by the disclaimant ( 42-6-5 (c)).
Deliver the disclaimer within nine months of the transfer (e.g., the death of the creator of the interest) to the personal representative of the decedent's estate or the trustee, or file it with the court having authority to appoint such a person or to enforce the trust ( 42-6-12). If real property is involved, record a copy of the disclaimer in the office of the clerk of county commission in the county where the property is located in order to avoid any ambiguity regarding the chain of title ( 42-6-15).
A disclaimer is irrevocable and binding for the disclaiming party and his or her creditors ( 42-6-5), so be sure to consult an attorney when in doubt about the drawbacks and benefits of disclaiming inherited property. If the disclaimed interest arises out of jointly-owned property, seek legal advice as well.

This was an excellent experience. The jurisdiction I was registering the Deed with, entrusts Deeds.com with their filing needs. And the staff held my hand through the process, and worked to submit the best package, and the Deed was successfully recorded.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I used deeds.com to record a deed because the recording office closed due to Covid 19.
It was easy to sign up and upload the documents I needed recorded and within 24 hours possibly even less, the deeds were recorded. I am very happy with the service and the $15 fee was affordable and worth every penny to get it done so quickly.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Easy to download. Hopefully easy to fill in. Just wish there was wording for a Beneficiary Deed for moving real estate property owned by a married couple to their Trust upon death of last Trustee.

They have been fabulous not only for getting me the Title and Property info I needed quickly, but also for determining which Deed (of many) that I actually needed.
They are an outstanding resource for any real estate investor, property owner, Realtor, or attorney.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Example deed given did not apply to married couples as joint owners with both being grantors. The example and directions also did not show how to write more than one grantee as equal grantees. Both would have been helpful when husband and wife are granting their property to their children equally. Also when attaching the exhibit A with the property description the example did not say "see exhibit A"in the property description area, so I didn't write that. Luckily the recorder of deeds allowed me to write it in. I think directions and examples for multiple scenarios would be helpful.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Well, we are 10 days from leaving the country for months and needed to notarize and record deed changes to our rental properties. We worried about USPS, UPS, DHL, etc. and hardcopies in the County's bureaucrats' hands. Soooo, we learned of Deeds.com from the County web site via one of the bulk digital recorders telling me about Deeds.com. Hit their site, read their instructions, concluded my tiny brain and decrepit abilities could handle the chore. WITHIN AN HOUR OF UPLOADING EVERYTHING INCLUDING C.C. FOR PMT IT WAS RECORDED AND I printed out copies. WORTH the $$ in speed, convenience and PEACE of mind. Pardon the loud trumpeting.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
