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 Kalkaska County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

Delivered as promised but the explanation of how to complete the form is very basic. I'd like to see a few broader explanations such as if the spouse isn't the affiant, etc.

Was fairly easy to complete but my situation wasn't covered so I had to make a call to get help. Will see if it gets filed successfully.

Ordered two separate forms for two separate states at two differnt times and couldn't be happier with my purchase. When compared to the cost of having two different attorneys prepare the forms I needed, the value of deeds.com couldn't be beat!

This was a good way to find the owners of land located in the middle of some that I owned. The experience was fairly easy and the cost reasonable.

Bought a transfer on death deed form and it worked great. Easy to fill out and record with the County. Got some helpful information from the county recorders office before filling out the form. I found out that I could use one deed for 2 properties. Saved me money not having to pay fees for 2 deeds.

For starters, enrolling was as easy as could be. Then, it only took minutes before my entry was formatted and filed. Finally, when I asked a question, I got an answer within a few minutes. Couldn't be happier with service

The process went smoothly and gave me what I needed. As an improvement, I would recommend that deeds.com sends an email when there is a new message in the portal. I didn't get any updates and had to log in to track progress each time.
