An easement is the right or interest to use another's land for a specific purpose. An easement deed is the instrument in writing which entitles the holder to a privilege or benefit, such as to place access points, pipe lines, or roads on another's land. Easements can be temporary or permanent. An easement in Idaho can also be obtained for the purpose of exposure of a solar energy device to sunlight, which is known as a solar easement. This type of easement is created in writing and is subject to the same requirements as other easements (55-615). A conservation easement can also be created in Idaho, and must also conform to the laws for other easements and conveyances (55-2101).
A transfer of real property in this state will pass all the easements attached to the land, and will create in favor thereof an easement to use other real property of the person whose estate is transferred, in the same manner and to the same extent as such property was obviously and permanently used by the person whose estate is transferred, for the benefit thereof, at the time when the transfer was completed or agreed upon (55-603).
In order for an easement deed to be eligible for recording, it must be signed by the grantor and acknowledged according to law. If not acknowledged, the execution of the easement deed can be proved in a manner dictated by statute (55-718). Easement deeds that have been executed and acknowledged in a state other than Idaho are entitled to be recorded by a county recorder in Idaho if they have been executed and acknowledged according to the laws of the state wherein such acknowledgements were made (55-805). Easements deeds must contain a proper certificate of acknowledgement in order to be recorded in this state, regardless of where they were acknowledged. Acknowledgements can be made before any of the officers listed in 55-701 of the Idaho Revised Statutes and must also meet the requirements as set forth in 55-707.
If left unrecorded, an easement deed is void as against any subsequent purchaser or mortgagee of the same property, or part thereof, in good faith and for a valuable consideration, whose conveyance is first duly recorded (55-812). However, an unrecorded easement deed is valid between the parties to it and those who have notice of it (55-815). Easement deeds and other instruments affecting the title to real property that are acknowledged or proved, and certified, and recorded as prescribed by law, from the time they are filed with the recorder, are constructive notice of the contents to subsequent purchasers and mortgagees. Easement deeds should be recorded by the county recorder of the county where the property is located (55-808).

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.

As a first time user and not having knowledge of how your site worked it was awkward to upload a file and not know what to do next. I found out there is nothing to do next but that after some time looking for a submit button or some kind of confirmation that I was doing the right thing. Ended up being very easy, just wasted time trying to figure out what to do when there was nothing left to do.
Thank you!

Process was easy. The instructions for TOD and a sample completed form was very helpful. E-recording of deed saved a trip to the county building and well worth the very reasonable charge.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The forms worked well for entering information. I have finished without much trouble. Since the forms are Adobe PDF files you need the free app to use them but you can't edit unless you have the paid Adobe program. And, it was a reasonable price.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I was counting on deeds.com to help me with a closing I was working on. I stumbled with the instructions but when I recovered there were no problems. The instructions were helpful and the deeds etc. were just what I needed. I give deeds five stars. I am 76 years old and when the application asks for the user's name I always think they want my name. WRONG. I am trying to learn computer speak.
Thank you Alfred, have an amazing day!
