Questions answered? Let's get started!
Common uses:
1. Buyer Cannot Obtain Traditional Financing
The buyer may not qualify for a mortgage due to:
Poor credit
Limited employment history
Lack of down payment
A Contract for Deed allows the buyer to make monthly payments directly to the seller, like a private loan.
2. Seller Wants to Keep Control Until Paid in Full
Seller retains legal title as security.
If the buyer defaults, the seller can cancel the contract through statutory forfeiture under N.D.C.C. Chapter 32‑18.
3. Family or Private Sales
Often used in:
Intra-family transactions (e.g., selling to children)
"Rent-to-own" type arrangements
Private seller-financed sales of rural or agricultural property
4. Agricultural or Rural Property Sales
Used to allow gradual ownership over larger tracts of land.
Reduces need for third-party financing and fees.
5. Investor or Rehab Property Sales
Sellers may use a contract for deed to sell fixer-uppers or homes needing repair to investors or owner-occupants who intend to renovate during the term of the contract.

Your product package was thorough and I am the one who does not know how to use or begin to be interactive with a computer. I wish I had learned long ago....ok your directions appear to be clear but when you are not familiar to the words.....it can and is difficult.....I downloaded the forms and completed them by hand/pen.....I just hope it will be acceptable to the recorder....Thank you
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I appreciate having forms available and not having to go to a business supply or attorney. This is great. However, there are two individual quit claim deed forms and I don't know which one is appropriate.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
