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Protects future buyers/lenders Shows the agreement is no longer in effect, reducing risk.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

I wanna give more stars because the required information is there, but the character spacing is disjointed on the first page, rendering a gap-filled, awkward-looking document. Also, the opening parenthesis for the first field on the first page is on the wrong line and is backwards, which sets the wrong tone especially since it's the first thing you have to fill out.

The forms were immediately available for download, which was nice. However, I was not impressed by the lack of several features: 1) there was no way to edit set text in the form, such as where it says you should consult an attorney. That is not necessary for recording the deed and I wanted to deleted it, but could not. 2) Also, under the "Notes" section, there is a limited area to write; I tried adding a fuller explanation of something, but the form would not accept or include it when I printed the final document. The form may do the job, but it's not very sophisticated or elegant.

Death of JT form was excellent. You have the best documents out there. I wish I could have read the sample just so I knew my information was entered correctly. Real problem is County wants a bar code on documents to get recorded. Now? Need four deed forms so the expense starts to be prohibitive. I would rather pay more and get multiple access.

Thought we would just do a quit claim to remove a name on a deed but after read your instruction and all that is needed we decided to meet with a lawyer. Appreciate all the info that you supplied.

At first glance, explanations and guidance to fill out the grant deed seems quite direct and no too difficult. I did not see any reference to a mortgagee which I believe needs to be incorporated in a boundary line adjustment (BLA), though not sure I'll do the actual filling out the form in the next couple of weeks and will be in a better position for a more complete review.
