Are there any recurring fees involved?

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

A limited warranty deed can be used in Vermont to convey title to real property. This type of deed is commonly used to convey property acquired through foreclosure. Limited warranty deeds are also used when a seller is unwilling to give a full warranty deed and the buyer is not willing to accept a quitclaim deed. There are no statutory deed forms for this state; common law legal language should be used in creating a limited warranty deed. The grantor in a limited warranty deed covenants that he is in lawful possession of the premises being conveyed and has good right and title to convey the same. There is also a covenant from the grantor to warrant and defend the title against all lawful claims and demands of persons claiming by, through, or under the grantor.

A limited warranty deed in Vermont must be signed by the grantor and acknowledged by the grantor before a town clerk, notary public, master, county clerk, judge, or register of probate before it can be recorded. An acknowledgment before a notary public in Vermont will be valid without an official seal being affixed to the notary's signature (27 341a). Notarial acts can be performed in Vermont or in another state. If a deed is acknowledged out of state according to the laws of such state where the acknowledgment is taken, the deed will be valid for recordation in Vermont. Out-of-state acknowledgments can be taken before any of the officers listed in 27 V.S.A. Statute 379.

Land records in Vermont are handled at a local level, which means that limited warranty deeds and other conveyances of real property are recorded in the town or city where the property subject to the deed is located. Until a limited warranty deed is signed, acknowledged, and recorded, it will not be effective to hold such lands against any person but the grantor and his or her heirs (342).

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.

This service is fantastic! Took a few tries to scan the document correctly, but their patience and quick turn around made this a far better experience than going to the County myself.

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

The forms are extremely helpful. They could use some updating. Promissory note "...in the form of cash, check or money order." is a bit outdated. My note is with my son and we have an automatic bank transfer set up for payments. He could Venmo me. There are many other options and likely to be more changes in the future, so I know this is difficult to maintain.
