Yes, you can save your deed form at any point with your information in it. The forms can also be emailed, blank or complete, as attachments.

Are there any recurring fees involved?

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

When a decedent dies intestate (without a will), fails to designate a personal representative (PR) in his or her will, or the named PR is unable or unwilling to serve, the court appoints a PR called an administrator.

Use an administrator's deed after the district court has issued an order for sale of the subject real property to convey the property from the estate.

The deed must meet all state and local standards for content and form, and includes a recitation of facts concerning the administrator, the decedent, the order for sale, and the subject property being transferred. The PR signs the completed document in the presence of a notary public prior to recording.

Depending on the nature of the transfer, it may require supplemental documentation. Consult a lawyer with questions about estate administration in Kansas.

I did this on a desktop using a scanned .pdf file. Simple, straight-forward, excellent instructions, easy, fast, and well documented for each step. From account creation to proof of recording: 4 hours... from the comfort of my home. I would highly recommend this service to anyone, including - and maybe especially - those who are looking for fast recording who aren't well versed in computers and on-line processes. Well done in all ways.
