This form serves as notice that the Seller has agreed to sell, and Buyer has agreed to buy a specific property. Record this instrument when a Land Contract has been completed. This is done for a variety of reasons.
A Memorandum of Land Contract serves as a notice to the "world" that a specific property is under a seller-financed purchase agreement.
Often used when parties want the details of a Land Contract to be kept private.
Why a buyer needs a recorded Memorandum of Land Contract. It is important to prevent loans or encumbrances being placed on the property by the existing Deed holder. Encumbrances have been placed on properties even though the Contract states they can't. This can be devastating for a buyer who has made payments. For protection either the Land Contract document or a Memorandum of Land Contract document should be recorded.
Why a Seller needs a recorded Memorandum of Land Contract. When owner financing is involved, and a buyer needs to finance property at a later point in time, a Lending Institution will most likely require a recorded Memorandum document. Further, banks like to see a history of payments, at least 12 months, often referred to as "Seasoning" a recorded Memorandum proves the subject property was under contract at a specific time.

The process was easy and cost was reasonable. My only suggestion is to allow user the ability to shorten the space between the county and state and the space after the month. I needed to draw a line at the courthouse before they would file it.
Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us improve. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

I am really impressed by this website. Not only is it affordable, but they give a detailed description, instructions, and an example to follow. Also there are additional forms included. And it's State, even county, specific. They do not require a subscription either as you can just order what you want. Thank you!
