Questions answered? Let's get started!
In North Dakota, a Notice of Contract for Deed is typically recorded more frequently than a Memorandum of Contract because:
1. It Provides Specific Statutory Protection
North Dakota law (specifically N.D.C.C. § 32-18-01 through 32-18-08) governs land contracts (contracts for deed), and the Notice of Contract for Deed is explicitly referenced in the statutory process for cancellation and enforcement.
Recording a Notice of Contract for Deed ensures:
Public notice of the buyer’s equitable interest.
The buyer is protected from claims by future buyers or creditors of the seller.
Triggering of statutory procedures if the seller wants to cancel the contract under Chapter 32-18.
2. Easier for Title and Recording Purposes
County recorders in North Dakota are familiar with Notices of Contract for Deed and often prefer them because:
They meet formatting and indexing requirements better.
They are more easily searchable in the public record.
Title companies more readily recognize them when issuing commitments or policies.
3. Often Required for Statutory Cancellation
Per N.D.C.C. § 32-18-03, if a seller wants to cancel a land contract due to buyer default, a Notice of Cancellation must be served. This process is easier if a Notice of Contract for Deed was previously recorded.
Memorandum of Contract vs. Notice of Contract
Notice of Contract for Deed---Memorandum of Contract
Specific to ND statute: Yes-----No
Protects buyer’s rights: Strongly-----Possibly
Recording preference: Preferred---Less common
Triggers cancellation rules: Yes------No
A Notice of Contract for Deed is recorded more frequently than a Memorandum of Contract in North Dakota because it:
Offers clearer statutory protections
Is specifically contemplated in cancellation statutes
Better serves title, enforcement, and recording needs
Is more comprehensive and standardized

This service is fantastic! Took a few tries to scan the document correctly, but their patience and quick turn around made this a far better experience than going to the County myself.
We are delighted to have been of service. Thank you for the positive review!

It's hard having to change names on an account when someone dies. I called and was helped by a rep named Lilah. She was most helpful and comforting. Thank you again Lilah.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such kind words Susanne, we appreciate you.

Deeds.com was prompt and fast with the entire process. My document was recorded and completed in less than 24 hours! Thank you again!
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Pros, quick purchase and document availability including instructions and examples. Cons, For the cert. of trust, the form would not accept the length of our trust name with no way to get around. The pdf file printing did not meet the requirements for 2.5" top margin and .5" other margins as well as the 10pt font size as the form information was shrunk down even when normal printing.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I put in two orders. I did not get any results from either order and I am still waiting for my refunds.
Thank you for your feedback. Sorry we were not able to pull the information you requested. We reviewed your account and the payment voids were processed as your were notified. Sometimes, depending on your financial institution, it can take a few days for the pending charges to fall off of your statement reporting.

I am pleased with this electronic service in making a time sensitive deed transfer since very few options exist currently with the Covid 19 Crisis. This was the only rapid and available option to record the deed transfer and the fee was reasonable. I was able to upload my notarized and executed document and had a record number as well as the official document within 24 hours. It was simple and easy to use. Thank you deeds.com!!
Thank you Giustino, glad we could help.
