The fill-in pdf produced a messy document and several of the fields too small to accommodate the text. A tailorable MS Word document would have been far better. I would not recommend using this product.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the fill-in PDF did not meet your expectations, particularly with regard to formatting and field sizing.

Based on your comments, we will be reviewing the document to see where improvements can be made. Feedback like yours is genuinely helpful in identifying areas where our forms can be clearer and easier to use.

We’ve gone ahead and canceled your order and refunded your payment in full, so there’s no expectation that you use a product you wouldn’t feel comfortable recommending.

My legal description exceeds the avaiable space in the one page Exhibit A...any way to add a second page as 'Exhibit A (continued)'?

Reply from Staff

It is not required to use the included exhibit page. Simply label your printed legal description as the appropriate exhibit.

The service was fast, but I didn't learn about the results until I logged in. I would have liked to get email when the report was finished.

This was easy to use and only contained one glaring error-where to send the completed form to finish the process. I’ve completed the form, does this mean I get the amended deed sent to me? I think not.

The booklet is too wordy. Not concise enough for someone who is inexperienced at filling out your form. It would be nice to have a picture example of what you are talking about. When we got to the Registars office we found out they do not have a notary. Would have been nice to know before we went. The form asks for page and book which is no longer needed. So why have it on there?

Reply from Staff

Thank you, Marolyn, this is useful feedback. A completed sample is actually included with the form, and your note tells us we should make it easier to find and tie it more directly to the instructions, so we'll do that. We'll also add a "before you begin" checklist and a clearer note that the document needs to be notarized in advance, since recording offices don't provide notary service. On the book and page: that reference is required by the Utah statute this affidavit is filed under (§ 57-1-5.1) and still applies to older deeds recorded before counties moved to entry-number-only indexing around 2000. You enter whichever reference appears on your recorded deed and leave the rest blank. Appreciate you taking the time to write in.

Outstanding forms and service. Liked that the main deed forms were PDF so I could fill them out on my laptop, in my own time, instead of some online Q/A auto populate system. Guide was helpful, as was the completed sample. Used the erecording service to file the deed, amazing.
