Common Uses for a Nebraska Land Installment Contract

1. Alternative to Traditional Financing
For buyers who can’t qualify for a bank loan due to poor credit, limited credit history, or self-employment.
For sellers who want to expand their buyer pool by offering owner-financing.

2. Purchasing Rural or Agricultural Land
Used for sales of farmland, ranch land, or vacant rural lots where traditional lending may be harder to secure.
Useful in family transfers of agricultural property where a younger generation buys the land over time.

3. Investment or Seller Financing Strategy
Sellers use land contracts to earn interest on installment payments and retain legal control of the property until paid in full.
May allow for a higher sale price or more favorable terms compared to cash sales.

4. Real Estate Flipping
A useful tool for real estate investors who buy, improve, and resell properties to buyers with limited access to financing.

5. Estate Planning or Intra-Family Transfers
Parents selling property to children using installment terms.
Allows for gradual transfer of ownership without requiring full payment upfront.
6. Land Development Deals

Used by developers selling individual lots in a subdivision on contract while retaining control until each buyer completes payment.
Legal and Practical Considerations in Nebraska
Title remains with the seller until the final payment is made.
Buyer holds equitable title, gaining certain property rights and obligations (like maintenance, taxes, insurance).
Use this land contract form for residential, condominiums and vacant land properties. Includes Installment payments schedule with or without a balloon payment.

Absolutely great. The staff is responsive and knowledgeable. The online interface is excellent. The total cost for finalizing the sale on our property (minus state filing fees) was $39. A wonderful experience.

I purchased the Affidavit of Surviving Joint Tenant document and found the whole package of documents to be useful and practical. Successfully recorded!!! While the fillable PDF files are good enough, I personally prefer a Word document as it is easier to modify font or spacing.
