Questions answered? Let's get started!
In Idaho, filing a Memorandum of Contract instead of a full Contract for Deed is often done to protect sensitive details of the contract while still providing notice of its existence. Here’s when you might file a Memorandum of Contract rather than the full contract:
Reasons to File a Memorandum of Contract:
1. Privacy Concerns: The full Contract for Deed may contain sensitive financial terms, personal information, or other proprietary details. A memorandum ensures confidentiality while still notifying the public of the agreement.
2. Public Notice: A Memorandum of Contract serves as constructive notice to third parties, such as potential buyers or creditors, that an agreement exists involving the property.
3. Simplified Recording: Memorandums are typically shorter and less detailed than the full contract, reducing recording fees and streamlining the filing process.
4. Avoiding Confusion: Filing the full Contract for Deed might create unintended legal implications or confusion, especially if specific terms are subject to further negotiation or amendment.
Situations to Consider Filing a Memorandum of Contract:
• Statute of Frauds (Idaho Code § 9-505): This statute mandates that certain agreements, including those for the sale of real property or interests therein, must be in writing to be enforceable. It specifies that such agreements are invalid unless there is a written note or memorandum signed by the party to be charged.
• When Selling on Terms: If you're using a Contract for Deed to sell real estate with financing, the Memorandum can signal the agreement without revealing terms like purchase price, interest rates, or payment schedules.
• Protecting Negotiations: If the details of the Contract for Deed are sensitive to competitive or personal concerns, a memorandum can suffice.
• Compliance with Legal Requirements: To comply with recording statutes in Idaho, ensuring that future purchasers or lenders are aware of the contract’s impact on title.
What Should a Memorandum of Contract Include?
A Memorandum of Contract should include:
• Names of the parties involved.
• Description of the property (legal description).
• Date of the agreement.
• Statement indicating the existence of a binding contract.
• Any additional terms as required by local statutes or personal preference (but usually limited).
Filing the Full Contract for Deed: In some cases, the full Contract for Deed might need to be recorded, such as:
• To fully protect the buyer's interest in the property.
• When parties want all terms of the agreement to be part of the public record.
• When required by financing entities or other legal circumstances.
Important: Your property must be located in Power County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.
This Memorandum of Contract meets all recording requirements specific to Power County.

Very easy to use. However, the "sample" filled in red ink did not print for me to refer to. Is that the correct desire, not to print?
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Easy fill in the blanks form. Just FYI make sure you have a copy of whatever deed you are changing and the tax records. You will want the language to be identical.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Great and fast service. Would have been grate to have seen a little more detail or a pre-filled sample in the fields. Had a little confussion in some of the lines to fill out since the guide only explains a few of the lines not all of them. Otherwise, is really great to have this service with low cost. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback Saul, we appreciate you.

The Beneficiary Deed is easy to fill out, expecially with the examples/explanations provided. The only recommendation I would make is to state that the Parcel ID and the Assessor's ID are one in the same. I looked everywhere for something that mentions "Assessor's ID" in my paperwork to no avail. Upon calling the Maricopa Assessor's number in Maricopa I was told that they are the same.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
