Our Services
Let us take the headache out of creating, filing and recording key documents for you.
Residential Quit Claim Deeds
A Residential Quit Claim Deed is a crucial legal document used in real estate transactions, granting the transfer of ownership or interest in a residential property from one party to another. It includes the names of the grantor (the current property owner) and grantee (the recipient), a detailed description of the property being transferred, and any pertinent terms or conditions of the transfer. Contact Lee County Document Preparation in Fort Myers, FL, for expertise in processing a Quit Claim Deed.
Timeshare Quit Claim Deeds
A Timeshare Quit Claim Deed is a legal document that transfers any purported ownership of a timeshare property from one party to another. There are several reasons to use these deeds. Lee County Document Preparation will help you with the title examination (if requested) and providing the preparation and filing services, including an in-house notary public if you are local.
Lady Bird Deeds (ELE)
A Lady Bird Deed lets you pass your property to your heirs automatically when you pass away — no probate, no
court, no delays. You keep full control of the property during your lifetime. Learn everything you need to know on
our dedicated Lady Bird Deed page.
Warranty Deeds
A warranty deed conveys property with a full guarantee that the title is clear and free of prior claims — required for
most arm’s-length sales and lender-required transfers. We prepare warranty deeds for $225 flat, the same as all
our other deed types.
