Are there any recurring fees involved?

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

As part of the Kansas Statutes, the beneficiary of an interest in property may renounce the gift, either in part or in full (K.S.A. 59-2291 to 59-2294). Note that the option to disclaim is not available to beneficiaries who have acted in any way to indicate acceptance or ownership of the property (K.S.A. 59-2293 (b)); nor is it available to welfare recipients (K.S.A. 39-709).

The disclaimer must be in writing and include a description of the interest, a declaration of intent to disclaim all or a defined portion of the interest, and be signed by the disclaimant (K.S.A. 59-2291 (b)).

File and record the disclaimer within nine months of the transfer (e.g., the death of the creator of the interest or other qualifying event) in the district court in which the estate of the decedent is or may be administered. Also, deliver, or send by certified mail, a copy of the instrument to the individual who created the interest or to his/her personal representative, or to the holder of legal title to the property (K.S.A. 59-2292). If real property is involved, record a copy with the register of deeds in the county in which the disclaimed property is located in order to avoid any confusion in the chain of title.

A disclaimer is irrevocable and binding for the disclaiming party and his or her creditors (K.S.A. 59-2293), so be sure to consult an attorney when in doubt about the drawbacks and benefits of disclaiming inherited property. If the disclaimed interest arises out of jointly-owned property, seek legal advice as well.

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.

I planned to use an attorney for this process but deeds.com made it so easy I was able to do it myself and I saved $330 in the process. I really appreciated the instructions and example provided on the site.

Your website advertising was somewhat deceptive regarding doing a quitclaim on a name change.

"If you are transferring the property to yourself under your new name, all you have to do is update the deed from your former name to your current one."

This made this sound easy. But when I downloaded the material for my state, expecting to find an example, there was no example of how to do a name change quitclaim deed!

I therefore had to figure this out myself. You might have provided a warning about certain uses that were not covered in the material so that people know ahead of time that the use they needed to know about wasn't covered in the material.

Very satisfied with the PDF documents that I purchased. Will be able to transfer property without hiring an attorney.
Well worth the price I paid.

I think it needs to be easier to enlarge print to fit an 8"x12" sheet of paper. Printing off samples is difficult to read as it is too small

We had hoped, as this was direct through our State recorder's office, State-specific data would be pre-filled in. Also there is no help when transferring the home title from a Revocable Trust to the living Trustee and new spouse (no example given, no help for which code to use). And the example doesn't match the prior deed revision format submitted by our attorney. So, not the best experience. We may have to get an attorney involved...what we were hoping to avoid

I believe you need more instruction on the use of the web site. I would type and nothing would appear on the form. When I tried to save a completed form I ended with a blank form with no detail.

I didn't have any problem downloading and filling out the form on my computer and printing it yesterday. I didn't know what to put for "Source of Title". I called the county recording office; they didn't know either and said to leave it blank. I got the form notarized at my bank and took it in to the recording office. They checked it, accepted it, I paid a fee, and it's done. So easy. My children will appreciate that I've done this. Added note: You do have one typo on your form--you left out 'at'. It should read: "You should carefully read all information at the end of this form."
