Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Memorandum of Land Sale Contract in Oregon is authorized under ORS 93.710, which permits recording a memorandum in place of the full contract.
It gives constructive notice under ORS 93.640 of the buyer’s equitable interest in the property. By extension, when a contract ends, a release or satisfaction document must also be recorded to clear the chain of title.
Each county recorder requires a properly executed “Release of Memorandum of Land Sale Contract” (or similarly titled document).
Common Reasons for Recording a Release
1. Full Performance / Satisfaction
The buyer has completed all obligations under the land sale contract (typically full payment of the purchase price).
Recording the release clears title and shows that the buyer now holds the property free of the seller’s contractual claim.
2. Mutual Termination / Rescission
Both parties agree to cancel the contract.
A release ensures that the recorded memorandum no longer clouds title, allowing the seller to convey to another party.
3. Forfeiture or Default
If the buyer defaults and the seller declares forfeiture (per contract and ORS Chapter 93 / Chapter 18 procedures), the memorandum is released to restore seller’s clear title.
4. Substitution / Replacement Contract
If the parties replace the original contract with a new land sale contract or refinance, the old memorandum may be released so only the valid encumbrance remains of record.
5. Quiet Title / Court Order
If there is litigation (e.g., a dispute over performance, fraud, or mistake), the court may order the release to remove a cloud on title.
Statutory Basis
ORS 93.640(1) – requires recording of instruments affecting title.
ORS 93.285 to 93.300 – govern recording of land sale contracts and memoranda.
ORS 93.210 – establishes duty to release instruments upon satisfaction (applies to mortgages, trust deeds, and by analogy to memoranda when obligations are fulfilled).
Why Recording is Critical
A recorded memorandum clouds the title, and title companies will not insure future sales or refinancing until it is released.
Recording the release protects both buyer and seller by creating a public record that the contractual interest has ended.

Your data doesn't go deep enough in time to be useful to me. I needed deeds from 1911 to 1966.
Thank you for your feedback Jan. It does look like staff canceled your order after discussing your needs with you.

Form and instructions were useful. But I suggest creating a form for transferring a deed pursuant to a trust. The existing form is based on a will going through probate so it doesn't fit the trust situation in some respects.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

It's useful to have forms specific to the County as well as the State. The examples are also helpful, but it would be even more helpful to see an example of a complete and successfully filed package. I will go the County Recorder's Office to see if I can find an example there.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Great do it yourself forms (I used the Quitclaim deed). If you think you're going to need a lot of hand holding you might consider hiring an attorney. The guide and general information provided by deeds.com will help if you have some idea of what you are doing and you are willing to research a little. Your mileage may vary but for me, this was a very efficient and economical way to get my quitclaim deed done.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I am delighted with the form. I just had to go through so much time and expense in order to use it. First, from your site I downloaded Adobe Acrobat. It totally compromised my computer. I had to get a computer expert to walk me through deleting adobe, and put a substitute on in order to use the form. That was an expense of $60.00. Then after that I still had a hard time getting the program to work, as the substitute program would not accept my e-mail address and I finally had to get someone on line to help me access that. I found it was a $$30.00 charge for the substitute. After fighting these lovely roadblocks, I was finally able to fill in the only form I needed and print it off. Took me two days to accomplish that. Why on earth do you offer adobe when it can compromise a computer so badly? Dealing with my husbands death and then having to deal with this, just one of many deterrents, well let's put it this way, it did not make my two days.
Thank you for your feedback. Sorry to hear of your experience. Our documents are Adobe PDFs because PDF is the standard for digital documents, most computers have Adobe Reader installed, and it (Adobe Reader) is free.
