Are there any recurring fees involved?

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

In order to have a quitclaim deed admitted to record in Vermont, it should be signed by the party granting the real estate, acknowledged by the same, and recorded in the clerk's office in the town where the property is situated. Unlike many other states that employ a county recording system to record quitclaim deeds and other real property instruments, Vermont uses a town recording system. Vermont quitclaim deeds use traditional legal language to convey the grantor's interest in real property.

Unless a quitclaim deed is acknowledged and recorded in the appropriate town clerk's office in Vermont, it will not effectively hold lands against any person but the grantor (V.C.A. 342). Recording a Vermont quitclaim deed provides notice of its contents. If a later buyer is paying fair value for property, and a quitclaim deed related to that property has not been recorded, the buyer does not have notice of earlier conflicting interests. If the later buyer records the quitclaim deed first, that deed would have priority over later recordings.

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.

At first glance, explanations and guidance to fill out the grant deed seems quite direct and no too difficult. I did not see any reference to a mortgagee which I believe needs to be incorporated in a boundary line adjustment (BLA), though not sure
I'll do the actual filling out the form in the next couple of weeks and will be in a better position for a more complete review.

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
