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

Deeds was responsive and got back to me right away suggesting I go to the county and retrieve copies of the deed there. It's a couple of hundred miles away so was hoping I could do it online. A pretty good website though. Sorry we couldn't do business.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

My goal was to find the Covenant, Conditions, and Restrictions for my HOA. From what I can read, these documents should be attached to our Deed (single family, patio home in New Hanover County). I am not sure if I have a copy of my Deed. I would need to check my Safe Deposit Box. Unfortunately, I was not successful at finding these documents from your Website. If you can help me find them, I would appreciate that.
It is most common to obtain a copy of CC&Rs directly from the HOA. Alternatively, they are also usually a matter of public record recorded with the local recorder and you can obtain a copy there.

I love deeds.com - hands down, the quickest way to record a warranty deed. The process and communication is so quick - the recording transaction too. Worth the extra $20 to me for my time! I didn't spend over an hour driving around, talking to someone via a kiosk to record the deed, didn't have to spend the energy of loading kids into the car to come with me, etc. The efficiency and timely process is worth the cost! Love having this available! The whole process via deeds.com took less than 5 minutes to upload a document and less than 3 minutes to pay the invoice shortly thereafter. The final recording was in my inbox in less than an hour. Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
