Questions answered? Let's get started!
Recording a Notice of Bond for Deed pursuant to La. R.S. 9:2941.1 protects both the buyer and the seller in important ways by securing their interests in public records.
A bond for deed (or a notice of it) may be recorded in the mortgage and conveyance records.
Once recorded, any lien, mortgage, or sale filed after the bond for deed will be subject to the rights created in that bond for deed contract - it will have the same effect as recording the full contract for the purpose of notice and protecting the buyer’s rights.
This includes leases, judgments, or other obligations that the seller might try to incur after the bond for deed is in place.
A Notice of Bond for Deed is typically used to protect privacy while still putting third parties on notice.
How It Protects the Seller (Vendor):
Establishes formal documentation of the seller’s continuing title and terms of the agreement.
Limits future liability: If the buyer defaults or abandons the property, the seller can point to the recorded notice to assert their rights.
Supports quiet title or foreclosure: A recorded notice helps establish a legal record in case of litigation or repossession.
How It Protects the Buyer (Vendee):
Priority of rights: The buyer’s interest is protected from later claims (e.g., if the seller tries to mortgage or sell the property again).
Public recognition of interest: The buyer's right to eventually own the property becomes part of the public record.
Prevents interference: Third parties cannot easily claim ignorance or priority over the buyer’s interest.
Authority to Cancel Later-Filed Encumbrances "Following registry of the sale by bond for deed seller to the bond for deed purchaser. This part applies after the buyer completes the purchase (i.e., receives a deed). It allows any interested party to request that liens or encumbrances recorded after the bond for deed (or its notice) be cancelled, provided:
The bond for deed or notice was properly recorded before those liens,
The lienholder is given 30 days’ written notice and does not voluntarily release,
A copy of the final sale deed is attached to the request.
Practical use: This gives the buyer or their successor a method to clear old liens that appeared after their interest was protected by the Notice of Bond for Deed filing.
Important: Your property must be located in Lafayette Parish to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.
This Notice of Bond for Deed meets all recording requirements specific to Lafayette Parish.

Poor communication. Confusing charges. (Waiting for explanation) overall, not thrilled and at this point would not recommend.
Sorry to hear of your confusion. We've gone ahead and canceled your order. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

Overall positive experience; especially liked immediate access to downloaded documents and instructions. My only concern was lack of adequate space in portions of your beneficiary deed blank form which then required me to use 3 exhibits to complete all necessary documents for the county recorders office. Assuming they accept them I will call this a strong win. Thanks.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

It was very easy to order,download, and print. The only issue I have is that the guide that came with my form really did not help me filling it out. I feel the explanations could have been better and suited more for the standard person. I was still confused when filling it out and will probably have to get a lawyer to make sure it's filled out correctly
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
