The release of mortgage form was OK, and accepted at the recorder's office, but there were some problems. Many of the fields to type in were too small to accept the data, and I could not find a way to change the field size or use a smaller font. Otherwise I was satisfied.

Easy to complete. I would suggest, since it is 2 pages, make a bigger space for land descriptions & sources.
