Questions answered? Let's get started!

A Memorandum of Contract is a short-form document recorded with the Registry of Deeds to provide constructive notice of a pending or existing agreement involving the purchase or transfer of real estate. It protects the buyer's equitable interest and discourages third-party sales or encumbrances. A memorandum of agreement is typically recorded to give notice to third parties (like lenders or buyers) that a property is under contract. It usually:
Identifies the parties
Describes the property
States that there is a contract to sell
May include closing date or conditions
Often omits purchase price or other confidential terms

Excellent full set of documents with example and guidelines on how to do it ourselves without paying a lawyer. Or, we save legal fees by completing it ourselves and having a lawyer review it. Love that I can save the pdf and fill it out whenever I want. Thank you for having this available!

This was the easiest, quickest, most understandable way I've seen yet to retrieve deeds from various counties. The government websites are "clunky" and each one seems different than the other. I like this service and will use them again in the future. NANCY
