Use this form to release a portion of property secured by a mortgage and promissory note. Example: borrower has financed 5 lots for $100,000.00 which has since been paid down to a balance of $30,000.00. Borrower approaches Lender and would like the lender to release lot #3 because he has it sold. The lender might think, ok - he will owe me $30,000.00 on the remaining 4 lots, I consider this a good risk. The same can also be applicable to condominiums, apartments, parcels, etc.

The website and information is fine. The proof in the pudding, of course, is whether the forms I used now will provide the results I want if the changes are challenged at some future date.

Very satisfied. Download was easy, completing the form was easy, got our signatures notarized and submitted it to the register of deeds. The only item was that the register of deeds did not immediately recognize the TOD deed form as the usual form they receive. After carefully reviewing all the information and wording on the deed she accepted it.
