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.

This suited my purposes just fine. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. But,I would like to have had the ability to delete the many extra spaces on the final document ... for readability purposes.

I would absolutely use this service again. It was very convenient and I was pleasantly surprised at how responsive the staff was letting me know updates to my recording package. Also, my documents recorded immediately. I did have trouble uploading my document in the beginning because I didn't realize it had to be a pdf file. Once I figured that out, it was immediately accepted. Great service!

Process was easy. The instructions for TOD and a sample completed form was very helpful. E-recording of deed saved a trip to the county building and well worth the very reasonable charge.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
