All possession of real estate, tenements, and hereditaments in Arkansas can be transferred by a deed in writing. A grant deed in this state is often used by an owner of real property to grant all his/her interests and rights in the property to another person or entity.
A duly executed grant deed contains the guarantees that the grantor has not conveyed the land to any person other than the grantee and that the grantor has not encumbered the property with a lien. A grant deed in Arkansas is similar to a warranty deed, but does not include the further assurances that are present in a warranty deed ( 18-12-102).
A grant deed in this state must be duly acknowledged or proved by an authorized officer before it can be accepted for recording ( 18-12-201). All grant deeds and other instruments in writing for the conveyance of real estate are required to be acknowledged or executed in the presence of two witnesses who are not otherwise involved in the transaction, or acknowledged by the grantor in the presence of two such witnesses, who should then subscribe the deed. If the witnesses do not subscribe the grant deed as described at the time of execution, the date of their subscribing it should be stated with their signatures ( 18-12-104).When a court or officer takes proof or acknowledgement of a grant deed, they must have a certificate of the proof or acknowledgment endorsed on the instrument ( 18-12-205).
All deeds, including grant deeds, by which the title, in law or in equity, to any real property within the state is affected, which are required by law to be acknowledged or proved and recorded will be constructive notice of the contents to all persons from the time the deed is recorded in the office of the county recorder in the county where the property is located. A grant deed will not be good or valid against a subsequent purchaser of the same real estate for a valuable consideration without actual notice thereof or against any creditor of the person executing such an instrument containing a judgment or decree which by law may be a lien upon the real estate unless the grant deed, duly executed and acknowledged or proved as required by law, is filed for record in the office of the county clerk in the county where the real estate is located ( 14-15-404).

The process was fast and efficient. I did get a bit confused after entering info for my package but soon realized I had completed this part of the process and only needed to leave the page and wait for review of the document and then the invoice. It was pretty simple. After payment of the invoice I was notified that the document had been submitted. A few hours later I received notice that the document was recorded by the city. It was fast!
We are motivated by your feedback to continue delivering excellence. Thank you!

The guide I needed was very easy to understand and the template was easy to complete. I had a property attorney review the deed before I had it registered and she was impressed. She said she couldn't have written it better herself! Definitely worth the money instead of paying high dollar attorney fees for a simple task.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Very helpful, with blank and sample completed documents. The only thing I was confused about was the "legal description" of my property. The documents weren't too helpful on what that meant. Otherwise they were great. It saved me $200 to prepare these myself.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The documents themselves are fine and the information provided with them is helpful. I find the actual processing of the documents, however, to be difficult particularly once the document has been saved. First, I note that the box for the date only allows entry of the last 2 digits of the year. Unfortunately, my download only allows me to enter one of the 2 digits required. When I delete it repeatedly, it eventually allows both digits to be entered but puts them in extremely small text and in superscrypt. I have not found a solution to this problem and am not sure the deed can even be recorded with this problem.
Another problem is that if you try to revise the document after you have saved it the curser goes to the end of the line after each key entry. This means that there basically is no way to efficiently save the document for reworking later since you will have to delete everything you have entered in the text box unless you only need to make a single keystroke change or are willing to replace the curser after each entry. Try that with a long property description!
Please note that I am using a Mac to prepare my documents and perhaps this is part of an "incompatibility problem". However, I didn't see a disclaimer regarding Mac use and so would expect the documents to perform correctly. Overall, I give the program a "2 star" rating because I am experiencing significant difficulties in entering dates in the documents even before saving them and because saving your work for later revision appears to be basically unworkable.
Thank you for your feedback Thomas, we appreciate you being specific about the issues you encountered. Adobe and Mac have a fairly long history of issues working together.

This is an initial review of Deeds.Com and the ordering process for their Quit Claim package for Virginia. The ordering process was very easy and the price seems reasonable for what you get. I have reviewed and downloaded all my forms, but have not used them yet. Thus far I am pleased with the product and the process. E-Recording service is also offered, but I have not used that yet either. At this writing, I can whole-heartedly recommend Deeds.Com.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

It was easy to download. And your guide was informative as was the completed form for an example. But I wish that I had been able to edit the forms online and then print.
My handwritten info is just not as crisp.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
