Questions answered? Let's get started!
In Idaho, a Contract for Deed is typically used in real estate transactions where the buyer cannot obtain traditional financing, or the seller and buyer prefer an alternative arrangement for transferring property ownership. The contract allows the buyer to take possession of the property while making payments to the seller over time, but the seller retains the legal title until the purchase price is fully paid.
This Form includes Financing options, traditional installment payments or with a balloon payment if applicable.
LATE CHARGE additional charge when a payment is delinquent.
NON-SUFFICIENT FUNDS: Fees for bad checks.
IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER REMEDIES available to the Lender if this Note is not paid in full at the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall pay to Lender an Overdue Loan Fee
RIGHT TO PREPAY. Buyer has the right to prepay
Use this form for residential, a condominium, rental property, vacant land, a Planned Unit Development and small commercial property
Key Considerations:
Statute of Frauds Compliance: Under Idaho law, certain agreements must be in writing to be enforceable. Specifically, contracts for the sale of real property or interests therein are required to be in writing. This is outlined in Idaho Code §9-505, which states that agreements for the sale of real property must be in writing and signed by the party to be charged.
IDAHO LEGISLATURE: Property Condition Disclosure: Idaho's Property Condition Disclosure Act mandates that sellers of residential property provide a disclosure form to buyers. This form details the property's condition and must be completed and delivered to the buyer within ten days of accepting the buyer's offer. This requirement applies to various transfer methods, including installment sale contracts.
A contract with stringent default terms can be beneficial to the seller in the case of default. For use in Idaho only.
Important: Your property must be located in Lewis County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.
This Contract for Deed meets all recording requirements specific to Lewis County.

I am not so happy. I did find and purchase the document I needed. But there is one problem. It is in Adobe PDF format only. I cannot enter information into the form.
Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you may have been trying to complete the document in your browser instead of downloading the PDF and completing it on your computer. The PDF forms are fill in the blank, that's one of the reasons we use that format.

The forms were easy to use but there was a software issue that made it impossible to get the county name to appear on the form in the correct place. It made the deed look a little sloppy
Thank you!

I liked getting the forms but I was charged twice for some reason. I'm not sure what happened with that. Can you reimburse me? Thank you. Lanette
Thank you for your feedback Lanette. In review, it looks like your first payment was declined, second one was approved and processed. What you are seeing is one payment and a hold placed by your financial institution for the declined attempt. We are not sure why they do this but the hold usually falls off after a few day depending on their policy. If you have further questions about this you can contact your financial institution and they will explain. Have a great day.
