A Kansas Memorandum of Lease is a document recorded to provide notice of a lease agreement's existence. According to Kansas Statute 58-2221, it can convey an estate or interest created by an oil and gas lease, or any lease or easement involving wind resources for electricity generation. It must be recorded with the Register of Deeds in the county where the property is situated and must include the full names and addresses of the parties involved. The register is responsible for immediate recording and checking for errors against previous transfer records.
The statutes 58-2501 to 58-2510 in Kansas law collectively establish the legal framework for lease agreements and their termination. They dictate the terms under which leases can exist (58-2501), including the rights tenants have concerning property improvements (58-2501a), define annual tenancies (58-2502), set out how and when rent is to be paid (58-2503), and provide procedures for terminating leases, whether at will (58-2504), yearly (58-2505), or for farm or pastureland (58-2506, 58-2506a). Additionally, they specify the notice requirements for ending leases of different durations (58-2507, 58-2508), circumstances where no notice is needed (58-2509), and how such notices should be served (58-2510). Each statute impacts the enforceability and execution of a Memorandum of Lease by clarifying the rights and obligations of the parties involved throughout the lease's duration and upon its termination.

Forms easy to download but experienced problems trying to type in my information into the forms. Then when I went to print a form, Adobe wanted to charge me for printing. I ended up printing the blank forms and then filling them out manually.
Thank you, Ronald. We're glad you found the forms easy to download, though we're sorry to hear about the printing and fill-in experience. Our forms are designed to be fillable and printable using free software like Adobe Reader. If you ever run into issues, our support team is happy to help!

These products would be more useful if they final deed could be copied and pasted into a word document for proper formatting. Because most of the document is protected against selecting and copying, I did not find it useful. I would not purchase again.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
