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.

Disappointed. Description of Lien discharge form does not indicate it is specific to Mechanic liens. I'm inexperienced with liens & should have contacted someone before I ordered.
Sorry to hear that, it does look like our product description was lacking clarity. We have updated the description to better reflect the documents. We have also canceled your order and refunded the payment. Hope you have a great day.

Five stars rating for sure. All so easy to download and print from your home computer. I live in rural Arizona and have no store to run in to like the lady at the County office told me, so Deeds.com is the best.

The only suggestion I have is to include sample of putting quitclaim into a revocable trust.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

The information and instructions provided is thorough and great. But, the fill-in-the-blanks form does not work well and is very frustrating. The font size of the information I was adding on each individual line varies and is determined by the number of characters entered on that individual line. So the font size is different on each line. And the number of lines is fixed making it impossible to fill in the full legal name of the trust I needed to fill out the form for. My needs are somewhat unusual, but the form should have been designed to be flexible enough to handle it. A blank paper form would have been more useful.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
