Questions answered? Let's get started!
Michigan statute MCL 565.361 governs the release of a Memorandum of Contract related to land contracts, mortgages, or security assignments.
Here's how it affects the release: If a party has fully fulfilled its obligations under a land contract (e.g., the buyer has paid in full), the seller must execute a conveyance of land or provide a release of security interests.
Requirement to Provide a Release or Discharge: When a land contract mortgage or security assignment is fully satisfied, the party holding the interest (usually the seller or lender) must provide a discharge or release.
Failure or Refusal to Provide a Release: If a party fails or refuses to execute the required release or discharge after full payment, they may be subject to legal penalties and enforcement actions.
Marketability of Title: The statute ensures that once obligations are met and the necessary releases are executed, the property’s title is marketable, meaning it can be freely transferred or sold.
Enforcement & Penalties: If a seller or lender wrongfully withholds a release, the buyer or borrower can seek enforcement through legal action.
Subordination to Other Interests: The statute clarifies that certain real estate interests may take priority over a land contract, affecting the order of enforcement.
Effect on the Release of a Memorandum of Contract: A Memorandum of Contract is often recorded in place of a full land contract to put the public on notice of an agreement. When obligations are fulfilled, this statute requires the release of such a memorandum to clear the title.
Failure to release the memorandum after obligations are satisfied could lead to legal action and possible penalties under this law.
Important: Your property must be located in Alger County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

This is an initial review of Deeds.Com and the ordering process for their Quit Claim package for Virginia. The ordering process was very easy and the price seems reasonable for what you get. I have reviewed and downloaded all my forms, but have not used them yet. Thus far I am pleased with the product and the process. E-Recording service is also offered, but I have not used that yet either. At this writing, I can whole-heartedly recommend Deeds.Com.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Straightforward and pretty easy to use. The only downside is that there is no way to contact them directly. The number on the website is answered only by a voicemail with no return calls. Pricing seems fair compared to other services and much more efficient that filing "over the counter."
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The process was incredibly simple from start to finish. Someone from the team even sent a message to double check part of my document was filled out correctly. Will be bringing my business here in the future!
It was a pleasure serving you. Thank you for the positive feedback!
