Correct common errors in a deed, such as typographical mistakes or omissions in various sections of the original deed, by using a corrective deed, which must be signed by the grantor and witnesses and re-acknowledged.
The Florida Bar Association points out that the lack of a date or a wrong date does not invalidate a deed according to Florida Uniform Title Standard 3.6. They recommend against correcting deeds that are valid in spite of an error. When title has not passed to the grantee due to an error, however, use of a corrective instrument can be crucial. This would be in the case of an insufficient legal description, a lack of witnesses, a failure to obtain joinder of a grantor's spouse on a deed to homestead property, or if the deed lacks proper acknowledgement so that its recording does not impart proper notice. Five years after recording, however, a deed is presumed to be valid even if there was a defective acknowledgement or lack of witnesses (F.S. 95.231).
A corrective deed is not capable of divesting an unintended grantee, which can be remedied by the new grantor passing title to himself and another grantee. A corrective deed is also incapable of re-vesting portions of the land back to the grantor. Both situations require substantive changes that must be made by executing and recording a new deed.
The necessary elements for a legal conveyance must be present in a corrective deed, such as signature of the deed by the grantor in the presence of two witnesses, one of whom can be the notary. Constructive notice in the form of recording is necessary for the deed to be valid not only between the two parties but for prospective purchasers. Furthermore, the spousal joinder applies when the grantor is married and the property in question is the grantor's homestead. Title transfer of designated homestead property must be signed by the spouse to be valid.

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.
Your feedback is a crucial part of our dedication to ongoing improvement. Thank you for your insightful comments.

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!

This was a seamless process. It probably took one minute to fill out my information and upload the document. It was formatted and sent immediately. It was processed the next day at the county recorders office. I have zero complaints.
Before finding this company I spent an entire day calling and leaving messages at other e-filing companies like simplfile and others but they all required subscriptions. I just needed to file a single document now and then so that was not a good fit. (And those companies I found out still require the customer to do all the work!). Deeds.com kept me informed throughout the process every step.
I'm happy to write this review.
Thank you
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
