A Notice of Termination must be sent to all parties who have filed a Notice of Contract, if the contract has been terminated prior to the filing or recording of a Notice of Substantial Completion. M.G.L. Ch. 254, 2(b). If the contract is terminated, the owner must execute and file or record a Notice of Termination in the registry of deeds for the county where the subject property is located.

The Notice of Termination includes the dates of the contract, names of the owner and contractor, and a legal description of the subject property. Id.
A copy of the Notice, indicating the date of filing or recording, must be mailed by the owner, via certified mail with return receipt requested, to every person who has filed or recorded a Notice of Contract and to the contractor.

I am happy with the document but did not know that it would still have to go before the court. Thought it could be handled by the recorder of deeds.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
