The primary purpose of the memorandum is to give public notice of the existence of the sales contract/agreement and to establish the buyer's interest in the property.

Key Provisions:
Recording of Instruments (N.J.S.A. 46:16-1): This statute outlines the requirements for recording instruments affecting real property, which includes a Memorandum of Contract. It mandates that any deed or other instrument intended to create, transfer, or encumber an interest in real property must be recorded in the county where the property is located.

Effect of Recording (N.J.S.A. 46:21-1 et seq.): This section details the legal effect of recording documents. Recording a memorandum provides constructive notice to third parties of the existence of the underlying contract and the interests of the parties involved.

Acknowledgment and Proof (N.J.S.A. 46:14-1 et seq.): These statutes govern the acknowledgment and proof required for documents to be recorded. A Memorandum of Contract typically must be acknowledged before a notary public or other authorized officer to be eligible for recording.

Form and Content (N.J.S.A. 46:16-1.1): Specifies that documents presented for recording must be in a form that is acceptable to the county recording office, including the need for notarization and any additional information required by the local jurisdiction.

Example Statutory Language: N.J.S.A. 46:16-1: "Any deed or other instrument which is intended to create, transfer, or encumber an interest in real property in this State may be recorded in the office of the county recording officer of the county in which the real property is situated."

Practical Implications: A Memorandum of Contract should be prepared in accordance with these statutes, ensuring it is properly acknowledged and contains all necessary information to be accepted for recording.

Important: Your property must be located in Atlantic County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

This Memorandum of Contract meets all recording requirements specific to Atlantic County.

I needed to file an affidavit of succession. I downloaded the forms and filled in the blanks. The instructions and example sheet were very helpful. I got the paper recorded with the county today and all went smoothly. Good product.

The information and documents received are great. But the communication with customer service is not good at all. I've been waiting three days for them to respond to a question. I don't think they are going too.

So far so good. It was reasonably easy to download and complete the form using information found in my closing paperwork. I haven't yet had my form notarized but plan to do so this week and submit the packet to my county auditor.

The booklet is too wordy. Not concise enough for someone who is inexperienced at filling out your form. It would be nice to have a picture example of what you are talking about. When we got to the Registars office we found out they do not have a notary. Would have been nice to know before we went. The form asks for page and book which is no longer needed. So why have it on there?

Reply from Staff

Thank you, Marolyn, this is useful feedback. A completed sample is actually included with the form, and your note tells us we should make it easier to find and tie it more directly to the instructions, so we'll do that. We'll also add a "before you begin" checklist and a clearer note that the document needs to be notarized in advance, since recording offices don't provide notary service. On the book and page: that reference is required by the Utah statute this affidavit is filed under (§ 57-1-5.1) and still applies to older deeds recorded before counties moved to entry-number-only indexing around 2000. You enter whichever reference appears on your recorded deed and leave the rest blank. Appreciate you taking the time to write in.
