Contract for Deed (sometimes referred to as a Land Contract) – Missouri use and applications:

When Buyer Cannot Qualify for Traditional Financing.

Often used by buyers who may not meet bank loan requirements due to credit or income issues.

When Seller Financing is Preferred or Necessary.

When Sellers may offer this arrangement to broaden their buyer pool or avoid dealing with banks.

When Property is Being Sold “As Is”.

Often used in cases involving older or distressed properties where a conventional mortgage would be harder to obtain.

Investment Property Transactions.

Sometimes used in investor deals where holding title back until payment completion is part of the deal structure.

For Sale by Owner (FSBO) Deals.

Common in informal or family transactions without a real estate agent.

Land Sales or Rural Property.

Sometimes used when raw land or agricultural property is sold, especially if the buyer is planning gradual development. Use this form for residential property, rental property, Condominiums, vacant land, small commercial property and planned unit development property. For use in Missouri only.

Things to Consider:
Buyer Risk: Since legal title doesn't transfer until full payment, the buyer can lose the property (and payments made) if they default.

Seller Risk: The seller may have to go through legal action (sometimes similar to eviction or foreclosure) if the buyer defaults.

Recording: Buyer shall be authorized to execute and record this “Contract for Deed” or an “Affidavit of Equitable Agreement” on or after Initial closing.

World class forms, great for someone like me that has no clue what I'm doing! Always better to let the pros do it than think one knows it all and gets themselves in trouble!

Fast, efficient, and helpful. I don't often have documents that need recording but I found Deeds.com incredibly handy. It cost me no more and probably less than if I'd gone in to do it myself. It was especially helpful during this Covid-19 stay-at-home time. It all happened within a couple of hours and I had my recorded copies in my hands.

I find your forms hard to use, inasmuch as the forms cannot be converted to a Word Document. Editing and deleting of extra lines is not possible, making for a deed with large blank spaces.
Document that results is not usable for me.

Sorry to hear that we did not meet your expectations. We have canceled your order and payment. We do hope you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.
