On this date, the buyer pays the purchase price (minus any deposits or earnest money already paid), the seller transfers ownership of the property to the buyer, and both parties sign all necessary documents. This date is agreed upon by both the buyer and the seller and specified in the contract.
Key aspects of the closing date include:
1. Timing: It is usually set a few weeks to a few months after the contract is signed,
Closing Process: Transfer of Ownership. At the closing, the Seller will transfer all of its ownership of the property to the Buyer via Deed. The Seller represents that it has never sold or transferred any of its right title or interest in the Property or done anything to encumber same. The Seller agrees that it shall do nothing between now and the time of Closing to sell or transfer any of its right title or interest in the Property or do anything to encumber same.
2. Adjustments: Sometimes, the closing date may need to be adjusted if there are delays in meeting contingencies or other unforeseen issues.
Relevant statutes and general principles that apply:
1. Title 46:2A - Recording of Instruments: 46:2A-1: Requires the recording of real property conveyances, including contracts for deed, to be recorded in the county where the property is located. This provides public notice and helps protect the buyer's interest in the property.

Very helpful and informative. It has saved me time going to get the forms at county recorder / clerk (as my county and state websites dont offer forms on their sites) and also provided help understanding the uses of the specific deed I needed to use.
Thank you Eric. Have a great day!

The Oregon TODD transfer on death deed template worked great and was easy to use. They had instructions and a guide that had good pointers to filling everything out. It took about 2 weeks to mail in my filled TODD and receive it back from the county with their stamp. Would definitely use this service for other documents
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I was very glad to have this option for filing a form as it would have taken 4 days due to offices being closed to the public during the COVID 19 epidemic. I found the process to be fairly simple and I was able to file the document within 24 hours.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I found the process of downloading and completing the documents very user friendly. Thank you for the Declare Value instructions. It was easy to follow, though a sample of the declaration form would be very useful. I didn't know how to list my "capacity" so I left it blank so the recorder could advise me. Otherwise, thank you so much for being available for people who are capable of completing simple legal tasks without the expense of a lawyer. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Your appreciative words mean the world to us. Thank you.

I was skeptical when I first came upon this website. Not sure why I had such a negative feeling, but after I received the printed deed I felt relieved and completely satisfied. This is a great website for everyone who wouldn't want to retrieve their deed in person and worth the reasonable fee.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
