Questions answered? Let's get started!

Key Purposes of the Affidavit in Missouri:
1. Public Notice of Buyer’s Interest
Records the buyer’s equitable interest in the property with the county Recorder of Deeds.
Alerts anyone doing a title search (e.g., other buyers, lenders, title companies) that a prior claim exists.

2. Protects Against Seller Misconduct
Prevents the seller from:
Reselling the property to someone else.
Taking out loans against the property without disclosure.
Makes it harder for the seller to act in bad faith or “back out” after contract execution.

3. Supports Legal Standing in Court
Establishes evidence that a buyer has taken action to protect their interest.
Useful in disputes involving breach of contract, specific performance, or fraud.

4. Used in Creative Financing / Wholesaling
Common tool used by real estate investors or wholesalers to "cloud title" and ensure their deal doesn’t get bypassed.
Especially useful in Contracts for Deed, lease-options, and assignment deals.

5. Low-Commitment Alternative to Full Contract Recording
Instead of recording the full sales contract (which may contain sensitive info), the affidavit briefly states that a contract exists and protects the buyer's interest.

Legal Effect in Missouri:
Does not transfer legal title
Does not create a lien—it simply notifies the public of your interest
Gives priority rights if filed before others (like mechanics’ liens, new purchase agreements, etc.)

Old document deeds were not available and my cost was returned. Was referred to another location and was able to get some help there.

I like the service, it is hard to see enough of the document to know you're choosing what you need.

Thank you for your feedback. Our previews are intended to show general format and layout. Because these are legal forms, customers should already know the type of document they need before purchasing.

Customer service was poor. I felt like I had to debate the representative to provide guidance and assistance. They acted as though I knew the process, the documents involved, etc. At the same time, they asked me to confirm which documents or at least pages needed to be filed. I was leaning of Deeds.com for their expertise.

tl;dr - Bookmarked and anticipating using this site for years to come. My justification for rating 5/5 1. Provide intuitive method for requesting property records. 2. Cost for records *seems reasonable. 3. They clearly state that interested parties could gather these records at more affordable costs through the county (which was more confusing for an inexperienced person such as myself). I mean, I appreciate and respect this level of honesty. *I didn't shop around too much because it was difficult for me to find other services that could deliver CA property records.

The staff at Deeds.com was very patient and ensured the deed was in the correct format for recording. Had I tried to record it myself, it would have been rejected, as I did not have the home address for the 2 witnesses. I would definitely recommend deeds.com

Reply from Staff

Thanks for the kind words, Daniel. Witness address requirements catch a lot of people off guard. Glad we could get everything squared away before it hit the recorder's desk. We appreciate the recommendation.
