Iowa Code Section 558: Conveyances
Iowa Code Chapter 558, titled "Conveyances," provides the general framework for the recording of real estate documents, including contracts, memoranda, and their releases. The key provisions relevant to releasing a memorandum of contract include the following:

Iowa Code Section 558.46 - Mandatory Recording of Installment Sales Contracts:

This section governs the recording of installment sales contracts for residential real estate, as well as the option to record a memorandum of contract instead of the full contract.

Once the contract is satisfied, either the seller or the buyer may record a release of the memorandum to indicate that the installment sales contract is no longer in effect, either due to the contract being fulfilled or mutually terminated.

The release of the memorandum must be recorded with the county recorder’s office where the original memorandum was recorded. This clears the record of the buyer's interest in the property.

Purpose of the Release:
Clear Title: Recording a release of the memorandum ensures that there are no lingering claims or interests related to the installment contract. This is important if the property is to be sold or refinanced in the future.

Fulfilling Obligations: Once the installment payments are completed and the contract terms are satisfied, the seller has an obligation to release the buyer from the contract and to remove any encumbrances from the public record.

Legal Protection: Recording a release protects both parties from future disputes regarding ownership or interest in the property.
Practical Example:

Example: A buyer has completed all installment payments under a contract for deed with the seller. The original contract was recorded via a memorandum of contract. Once the final payment is made, the seller is responsible for preparing and recording a release of the memorandum to indicate that the buyer has fulfilled all obligations under the contract and now holds clear title to the property.

Important: Your property must be located in Floyd County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

It was confusing at first, but the customer service was excellent and fast and I got everything taken care of right away. I'll use Deeds.com even after the recorder's office is open to the public.

I am mostly satisfied with my Deeds.Com experience. Not sure if you can do anything about this, but since it is fairly common, I thought the Quit Claim Form would have a section specifically for adding spouse to a deed.
