California Substitution of Trustee and Full Reconveyance
Sometimes the original trustee on a deed of trust is unable or unwilling to perform his/her responsibilities. In that case, the beneficiary/lender uses this form to authorize a substitute trustee, who, by recording it, will release the lien and convey the land with a clear title.
California Code, Civil Code - CIV 2941
(2) If the trustee has failed to execute and record, or cause to be recorded, the full reconveyance within 60 calendar days of satisfaction of the obligation, the beneficiary, upon receipt of a written request by the trustor or trustor's heirs, successor in interest, agent, or assignee, shall execute and acknowledge a document pursuant to Section 2934a substituting itself or another as trustee and issue a full reconveyance.
(California Reconveyance Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.
Thanks for the kind words James, glad we could help. Look forward to seeing you again.

Wasn’t what I expected
Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

My sister in law is in a hospital ICU with Covid, so we were trying to get her affairs in order. Deeds.com made this difficult situation so much better by making this process very easy to understand and do.
Glad we could help Renee, hoping the very best for you and your family.

I would make just two suggestions.
(1) Create and example showing multiple grantor(s) and
(2) In the same example, show where and estate is conveyed to two or more people.
It would help in knowing the correct format.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
