Oregon's Construction Lien Law is codified at ORS 87.001 to 87.060 and 87.075 to 87.093.

Property owners and other interested parties who contract for construction work need to be vigilant and ensure that their property remains free from a mechanic's lien, especially those of any "hidden" lien claimants that may be working under another party and the owner is unaware. Therefore, an owner should draft, record, and post at a job site, a Notice of Completion, upon the jobs completion, because a lien must be perfected no later than 75 days after the project has ended or been abandoned.

In Oregon, a construction project is deemed complete when (a) the improvement is substantially complete; (b) a completion notice is posted and recorded; or (c) the improvement is abandoned. O.R.S. 87.045(1).

When all original contractors employed on the construction of the improvement have substantially performed their contracts, any original contractor, the owner or mortgagee, or an agent of any of them may post and record a completion notice. O.R.S. 87.045(2). The completion notice must include a legal description of the property, the date the notice was sent, and the signer's name and address. Id.

When completed, the Notice must be posted on the date it bears in some conspicuous place upon the land or upon the improvement situated thereon. O.R.S. 87.045(3). A copy of the Notice must also be recorded within five days from the date of its posting, by the party posting it (or his or her agent), in the recording office of the county in which the property, (or some part) is situated. Id. A copy of the notice, together with an affidavit made by the person posting the notice, stating the date, place and manner of posting the notice, must be attached to the Notice of Completion when it's recorded. Id.

Anyone claiming a lien created on the premises described in a completion or abandonment notice for labor or services performed and materials or equipment used prior to the date of the notice must perfect the lien on the 75th day after work on the construction of the improvement ceases. O.R.S. 87.045(4).

Proper use of a Notice of Completion will protect property owners by allowing them to know who might have a potential lien claim and start the clock ticking for the time to record such liens.

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.

From Pennsylvania here. Documents are great and easy to fill out however you are lacking a couple of things. You only provide the option for a Grant Deed when you purchase by your county which is Mercer County for me. Why not give the ability to get a Warranty Deed that better protects the Grantee?
Also, being from Pennsylvania and in a county that mined Buituminous Coal we are required to include the Coal Severance Notice and Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act Notice. You can check the box on your Deed form that they are required and attached but you do not provide the verbiage or form for this. You state that you know what each county requires and include everything required but you do not include these two required Notices. This has been a requirement for years and the wording never changes. I had to look for these Notices and hand type this information and include it on another seperate page after the Notary section on the Deed. The Grantor has to sign the Coal Severance Notice and be witnessed by a Notary so I had to add another place for the Notary and will have to pay twice for witnessed signatures when it could have been included in your document. My Deed from 2003 was done that way and then the Notary statement after that so it was only one notarized witness of signature.

Your website is very informative, and easy to use.The purchase and download process was clear and went well. I would add that your Virginia Quitclaim Deed Guide is very comprehensive and informative. This combined with the example form you provide is most helpful.
Thank You. Brian R

Deeds.com recorded documents for me without any issue. It's a good service and provides a lot of assistance on its web site. However, I asked for a printed receipt (i.e. an pdf copy of one), but after a staff provided me with an obvious answer, they simply ignored my follow up requests. I also asked a simple formatting question that they should have been able to answer; instead, they passed the buck and referred me to the recorder, which currently is a very time-consuming venture. They also have no telephone number for any issue. Generally, the service saves me the time and effort of physically recording a document, but when you think about $19.00 per recording seems like a steep price for the services rendered.
