Common uses:

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.

Forms easy to download but experienced problems trying to type in my information into the forms. Then when I went to print a form, Adobe wanted to charge me for printing. I ended up printing the blank forms and then filling them out manually.

Not totally satisfied as unable to edit as needed on signature page of the deed. I want to be able to date the document and don't want the verbage "signed, sealed and delivered in the presence of" to appear and cannot remove it. The notary will make his or her own statement below as to the date executed.

I needed a Contest of Lien form and was told by our County Department that the forms could be obtained online. The whole process of paying and receiving a PDF re-usable form was user friendly and the items that came with the purchase;the directions about filling out the form ect., were a fantastic addition for the price of the document. Happy customer!

This was a good way to find the owners of land located in the middle of some that I owned. The experience was fairly easy and the cost reasonable.
