Releasing a Memorandum of Land Contract in Nebraska is important because the memorandum is a public record that signals an equitable interest in the property. If it’s no longer valid—due to payoff, default, rescission, or other reasons—it needs to be formally released to prevent legal and transactional problems.

Reasons for release:

1. Removes Cloud on Title
A recorded memorandum creates a noticeable lien-like interest in the property.
If not released, it may block:
Sale or refinance by the seller
Title insurance issuance
Transfers to third parties

2. Prevents Future Legal Disputes
Without a release, future parties (buyers, creditors) may believe the land contract is still active.
The buyer or seller could face false claims, lawsuits, or delays in transactions.

3. Clarifies Contract Termination or Fulfillment
Confirms that the land contract has:
Been satisfied (i.e., paid in full and deed delivered)
Cancelled or rescinded
Terminated due to default or abandonment
Makes the termination part of the public record.

4. Protects the Seller
Prevents a buyer from later claiming ongoing interest or breach. Frees up the seller to sell, lease, or finance the property again.

5. Protects the Buyer
If the buyer walked away or defaulted, recording a release formally cuts off future responsibility.
Prevents confusion about taxes, liens, or legal obligations tied to the land contract.

Common reasons to Release a Memorandum of Land Contract
Scenario……………………………..Should You File a Release?
Buyer paid in full and received deed….Yes — contract fulfilled

Parties mutually cancel the contract ….Yes — prevent title issues

Everything went well except that any information that I typed in on the computer download moves upward so that the letters or numbers are somewhat elevated above the line that should be even with the words on the form. I think it will be acceptable to the county recorder, but I don't especially like to submit things that appear uneven. I asked for help but just received a robotic reply that said to take steps that I already had done. So unless you know a way to correct this I likely won't use your forms again.

I am a litigator based in Lee County that rarely needs to record deeds or mortgages. However, at times, the settlement or resolution of a dispute results in the conveyance of real property. I ended up in a situation where a deed to real property in Bradford County needed to be recorded on behalf of a client. My usual e-recording vendor does not include that County. Registering with Bradford County's regular e-recording vendor would have required an expensive and unnecessary annual fee. Deeds.com was easy to use, inexpensive and fast. I highly encourage its use, especially for lawyers that occasionally need to record instruments but do not do so regularly.

I liked the ease of locating the document I needed and the sample document was extremely helpful. I would have liked the acknowledgement to be on the same page as the rest of the document. It costs for each page recorded.
