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

For use in Massachusetts only.

This was very hard to follow, and the form looked horrible.

Sorry to hear that James. Some documents can certainly be more difficult than others. Your order and payment has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs and aesthetic requirements elsewhere.
