Questions answered? Let's get started!
In Maryland, you may choose to record a Memorandum of Land Installment Contract instead of the full original contract in certain situations. Here are the main reasons for recording a memorandum:
1. Privacy Concerns: A memorandum is a shorter document that outlines the essential terms of the land installment contract (such as parties involved, property description, and a reference to the contract), but it does not disclose all the financial terms and sensitive information. Recording the memorandum instead of the full contract can protect the privacy of the buyer and seller by keeping detailed terms of the agreement confidential.
2. Public Notice: Recording the memorandum still provides public notice of the contract’s existence and the parties' interests in the property without having to reveal all the contract terms. This ensures that third parties are aware that a land installment contract is in effect for the property.
3. Easier and Faster Recording: Since a memorandum is a brief document, it is typically quicker and easier to record. The land records office may process it faster than the full contract, which may contain numerous pages.
You might choose to record a memorandum instead of the full contract if you want to protect privacy, simplify the recording process, and still provide public notice of the agreement. However, check with the local county office to ensure that recording a memorandum is sufficient for your purposes.
This Memorandum is executed by BOTH party(s) solely for the purpose of being recorded in the public records of Maryland to give notice of the agreement and to confirm the agreement and all of its terms to the same extent as if all of the provisions of the agreement were fully set forth herein.
Important: Your property must be located in Baltimore City to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.
This Memorandum of Land Installment Contract meets all recording requirements specific to Baltimore City.

Fonts for all fields are not the same. Collin County has a specified size it wants in all fields. Other than that every thing was fine.
Thank you!

The form was useful, however the formatting is terrible once completed. A lot of white space with no option to remove extra spacing or to improve the overall formatting.
Thank you for your feedback, Heidi. We’re glad to hear the form itself was useful. We also understand your concern about the formatting and extra spacing once completed. Our forms are designed to meet strict county recording requirements, which can sometimes result in additional white space. That said, we’re always working to improve usability and presentation without compromising acceptance. Your input helps us identify where refinements are possible, and we’ll keep it in mind as we continue updating our templates.

My questions were answered promptly. I was not able to locate the deed I was searching for because my county has not uploaded the documents to be accessed through this system. I am sure I could have found what I was looking for had the information been available through the system. Thank you for your assistance.
Thank you!
