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 Saint Mary Parish to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

Found this site very easy to navigate and customer service very supportive and quickly answers any questions you have regarding forms. Best of all you can get the forms you need and only pay for those forms, not tied to some ongoing fee that you must cancel if you have no further need beyond forms you've already purchased.

The site is a good idea, however, I couldn't find what I needed with just the address alone. I was looking to get the name of a former landlord, as I can't remember it.

The QuitClaim deed does not provide enough space in the Grantor block at the top of the first page. In fact, all blocks should provide more space.

Thanks for reaching out. All available space on the document is being used. As is noted in the guide, if you have information that does not fit in the available space the included exhibit page should be used.

The website and information is fine. The proof in the pudding, of course, is whether the forms I used now will provide the results I want if the changes are challenged at some future date.
