Are there any recurring fees involved?

No. Nothing to cancel, no memberships, no recurring fees.

A beneficiary of an interest in property in Florida can disclaim all or part of a bequeathed interest in or power over property according to the Florida Uniform Disclaimer of Property Interests Act (Estates and Trusts Code, Chapter 739). This document must be in writing, declared a disclaimer, signed by the beneficiary or a legally authorized representative, and witnessed and acknowledged like a deed (739.104).

The disclaimant must record the disclaimer with the clerk of the court in the county where the property is located, as well as deliver it to the legal representative of the decedent, the fiduciary or administrator of the estate, or to the person to whom title to the property will pass (739.601).

Once effective, the disclaimer is irrevocable and the disclaimed interest "passes according to any provision in the instrument creating the interest providing explicitly for the disposition of the interest" (739.201). Be sure to consult an attorney when in doubt about the drawbacks and benefits of disclaiming inherited property.

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.

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.

Easy to use service. However, the product that I purchased did not meet my needs. No fault of the company.

Wonderful forms. It's nice that they were formatted perfectly for my county, it's real easy to miss a requirement (margines, font size, and so on) and end up with a rejection or higher recording fee. Good job folks!
