Reasons to Release an Affidavit of Equitable Interest.

Clear Title for Future Transactions:
Recording a release removes any cloud on the property's title, facilitating smooth future sales, refinancing, or transfers.
Prevent Legal Complications: An unreleased affidavit might lead to disputes or legal actions, such as a quiet title lawsuit, to resolve any perceived claims against the property.
Maintain Accurate Public Records: Ensuring that public records reflect the current status of property interests upholds the integrity of property records and protects all parties involved.

When Should It Be Released.
Upon Completion of the Contract: Once all terms of the contract for deed or purchase agreement are fulfilled.
If the Contract is Terminated: When both parties agree to cancel the contract or if it's voided for any reason.
After Assignment: If the equitable interest has been assigned to another party, and the original affiant no longer holds any claim.

Fantastic service. I purchased the form one day, had it filled out, notarized and e-filed the next day. The following day I received the recorded document back. It was really overnight service!

The deed itself was easy. I did notice that although the website says that the deed would exempt the house from probate, the deed clearly states that it might not. I hope that "might " is the operative word here.

One of the most satisfactory and easy to use websites I have come across. Being able to record documents in the court records without having to pay an atty $500 per hour and accomplish the recording in about 24 hours instead of days and even weeks i s invaluable. Worked perfectly.

Thank you for your services...Attny office quoted a very large fee for the "TOD DEED" process, so this is very helpful that I am able to take care of this myself. If I would have researched your link sooner, I could have saved my Dad a lot of money for the "SURVIVORSHIP DEED". Thanks again & have a wonderful day:)
