Questions answered? Let's get started!

A Release of Affidavit of Equitable Interest is a recorded document used to formally cancel and remove an Affidavit of Equitable Interest from public land records. Its purpose is to clear title, remove encumbrances, or reflect that a buyer’s equitable interest in a property is no longer valid or active.
Here are some common uses for a Release of Affidavit of Equitable Interest in Kansas

1. Contract for Deed Has Been Fully Satisfied
The buyer has completed all payment obligations.
Legal title has been conveyed via deed.
Recording the release helps avoid confusion over any lingering claims.

2. Buyer Defaults on the Contract
The buyer stops making payments or otherwise breaches the contract.
Seller may record a release after giving proper notice (often 15 days as per K.S.A. 58-5202).
Clears title so the seller can resell or refinance the property.

3. Mutual Termination or Cancellation
Both parties agree to cancel the contract for deed.
Buyer relinquishes their equitable interest voluntarily.
Recording the release helps prevent future title disputes.

4. Buyer Has Vacated or Abandoned the Property
If the buyer walks away from the contract/property.
Seller can document the release and proceed with possession or resale.

5. Affidavit Was Filed in Error or No Longer Applicable
For example, the affidavit was mistakenly recorded or based on an unenforceable agreement.
Recording a release corrects the official land records.

6. Court Order or Settlement
A judge may order a release as part of a quiet title action or dispute resolution.
May also follow mediation, divorce, or estate settlement involving the property.

7. Clearing Title for Sale, Refinance, or Transfer
Lenders and title companies often require the release to be recorded before issuing a loan or insurance.
Ensures the property appears free of competing claims in title searches.

Recording the Release of Affidavit of Equitable Interest protects the seller, the buyer, and any third party (like a lender or future purchaser) by ensuring the public land records accurately reflect the current legal and equitable interests in the property.

Not totally satisfied as unable to edit as needed on signature page of the deed. I want to be able to date the document and don't want the verbage "signed, sealed and delivered in the presence of" to appear and cannot remove it. The notary will make his or her own statement below as to the date executed.

The papers allowed me to get done what I needed. But for the price I would expect a spell check. There were spelling errors when there should not have been any. Please proof read

Customer service was poor. I felt like I had to debate the representative to provide guidance and assistance. They acted as though I knew the process, the documents involved, etc. At the same time, they asked me to confirm which documents or at least pages needed to be filed. I was leaning of Deeds.com for their expertise.

Would have paid double for these forms. Thankfully there are professionals making these things, I would have surely messed it up if I tried to do it myself based on my incorrect preconceived ideas.
