Questions answered? Let's get started!
In Ohio, a Full Release of Memorandum and Notice of Agreement (typically referring to a land contract or real estate contract) should be recorded when the underlying agreement is terminated, satisfied, or no longer enforceable. This ensures clear title and protects future buyers, lenders, and owners.
________________________________________
When to Record a Full Release of Memorandum
You should record the release when:
1. The Land Contract or Agreement Has Been Fully Performed
• The buyer has completed all installment payments under a land contract.
• Title has been (or will be) transferred by deed.
• The contract is no longer needed as evidence of equitable interest.
2. The Contract Has Been Terminated or Canceled
• If either party lawfully terminates the agreement (e.g., buyer default, mutual rescission).
• This includes forfeiture proceedings or cancellation by mutual release.
3. To Clear Cloud on Title
• A recorded Memorandum and Notice of Agreement creates a public notice of a party’s interest.
• If that interest no longer exists, failing to release it can cloud title and prevent sale or refinancing.
________________________________________
Why Recording Is Important
Reason Explanation
Clear chain of title Prevents confusion over current ownership and interest.
Protects future buyers/lenders Shows the agreement is no longer in effect, reducing risk.
Complies with title company requirements Needed for issuing clear title insurance.
Avoids potential litigation Prevents claims of continuing interest or disputes.

Legal Background
In Ohio, there's no statute that specifically requires a release of a memorandum — but once a memorandum is recorded (under R.C. § 5301.25), it becomes constructive notice of the agreement. If the agreement ends, releasing that memorandum is strongly recommended to:
• Avoid misleading third parties
• Ensure a clean public record

This is the most comprehensive, helpful real estate tool I have seen. I was at first worried because the 330# didn’t have live operators but I received messages in my account as quickly as a conversation had by text and was able to download a deed and record it the same day in a county 1,300 miles away. Highly recommended!
We are sincerely grateful for your feedback and are committed to providing the highest quality service. Thank you for your trust in us.

Really impressed with the speed and professionalism of the service. I would recommend putting a grey background on the form field inputs as I had trouble seeing them in the user interface, but otherwise I was really impressed and would happily return as a customer.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Extremely easy to use. The sample completed document was very helpful. I really appreciated not having to spend a few hundred dollars for a lawyer to generate a document that I can produce myself for a small fraction of the cost.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

You had the generic document that I was looking for Yay! The "example" page was helpful and reassuring. The auto input sections of my document looked ok until i printed it and then it appeared to be out of alignment which is why my rating is lowered to 4 stars it would be nice to have the ability to correct the title (created by me) when downloading PDFs for an e-filing
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
