Real estate conveyances in Kentucky are governed by Chapter 382 of the Kentucky Revised statutes, but the statutes do not specifically address grant deeds.
A grant deed is a legal document used to transfer, or convey, rights in real property from a grantor (seller) to a grantee (buyer). A recorded grant deed imparts notice of transfer to all persons, including subsequent purchasers or mortgagees. They contain covenants, or guarantees, that the grantor has not previously sold the real property interest being conveyed, and that the property is being conveyed to the grantee without any undisclosed liens or encumbrances. Grant deeds do not generally require the grantor to defend title claims.
The deed must meet all state and local standards for recorded documents. A lawful grant deed identifies the grantor and grantee, with their full names and addresses, and states how the grantee will hold title to the property. For Kentucky residential property, the primary methods for holding title in co-ownership are tenancy in common, joint tenancy, and tenancy by entirety. A grant of ownership of real estate to two or more persons creates a tenancy in common, unless otherwise specified (KRS 381.050(1)). It also includes a complete legal description and physical address of the property. Explain the source of the current grantor's title and include the in-care-of tax address where the property tax bill may be sent (KRS 382.110(2)). The preparer of the instrument must sign the document (KRS 382.335).
State either the full amount of consideration exchanged during the transfer, or if nominal or no consideration has been exchanged, the fair cash value of the property in the consideration certificate section pursuant to KRS 385.135. The county assesses a transfer tax on the consideration, due at the time of recording, unless the transaction is exempt under KRS 142.050.
After the grantor signs the completed deed in front of a notary, record it, along with any supplemental documentation necessary for the specific transaction, in the county in which the property is located (KRS 382.030, 382.110(1)). Recording provides public knowledge of the change in ownership and helps to maintain a clear chain of title.

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.

The instructions and example for filling out the form were very clear and detailed making the whole process fairly easy. An attorney I talked to wanted $200 to fill out this simple form. I haven't tried to file it yet but I will let you know if there are any issues. Really a great deal. $20 vs $200.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

This service is excellent. I submitted a Quickclaim Deed so my home would be in the name of a Living Trust I had just created. This was my first attempted at any of this and the staff person, KVH, who reviewed my Deed was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions I had and to make sure the Deed had the correct information before submittal to the county for recording. I started the process one afternoon and by the next day, the Deed was submitted to, and recorded in, my county. I will use them again whenever needed.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful 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!

Straightforward and pretty easy to use. The only downside is that there is no way to contact them directly. The number on the website is answered only by a voicemail with no return calls.
Pricing seems fair compared to other services and much more efficient that filing "over the counter."
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

You charge too much for a form. Your business model is shortsighted. I would not try to use your service again. You got $20 from me this once, but I would try very hard to not use your service again. Your model does not encourage serial or professional usage.
Thank you for your feedback John. We do wish that you had decided our product was too expensive prior to purchasing and using so that there was no remorse. Have a wonderful day.
