Questions answered? Let's get started!
In Pennsylvania, a Release of Memorandum and Notice of Agreement is typically used to formally terminate or release a previously recorded Memorandum of Contract (also called a Notice of Agreement). This document is filed with the county recorder's office to clear any claim or cloud on the property title that resulted from the initial memorandum. Here's why and when it should be used:
Why is a Release of Memorandum and Notice of Agreement used?
Clear the Property Title: When a Memorandum of Contract or Notice of Agreement is recorded, it puts the public on notice that a contractual agreement exists regarding a specific piece of property. This can "cloud" the property’s title, making it difficult for the owner to sell or refinance the property. A release removes that cloud.
End a Legal Obligation: If the contract between the buyer and seller (or parties involved in the agreement) is terminated, canceled, or fulfilled, the Memorandum of Contract is no longer relevant, and recording a release ensures that no one can claim that the property is still bound by that agreement.
Avoid Potential Disputes: By recording a release, the parties involved are formally acknowledging that the agreement has been discharged, preventing future disputes regarding the validity or enforceability of the initial contract.
When should a Release of Memorandum and Notice of Agreement be used?
After a Contract is Fulfilled or Closed: If the terms of the original contract (e.g., a real estate purchase agreement) have been fully performed (e.g., the sale has closed), the memorandum is no longer needed, and releasing it ensures the title is clear.
If a Deal Falls Through: If the contract is terminated or canceled before the deal is completed (e.g., the buyer or seller backs out, or there’s a mutual agreement to cancel), a release is necessary to officially reflect that the agreement is no longer in effect.
Upon Request of the Parties: Sometimes, a party may request that the memorandum be released to facilitate a new transaction (e.g., a new buyer is interested, or refinancing is needed), and clearing the title is essential for moving forward.
What Happens If a Release Is Not Filed?
Clouded Title: If a Memorandum of Contract is not released, it can cloud the title, making it difficult or impossible for the property owner to sell or finance the property.
Legal Issues: The existence of a recorded Memorandum can lead to legal disputes or claims that the agreement is still valid, even if the underlying contract has been terminated.
Process to File a Release: Draft the Release of Memorandum: This legal document typically needs to reference the original Memorandum of Contract, including the recording details (Instrument #, etc.).
Signatures: The release should be signed by the appropriate parties (usually both the buyer and seller or other parties to the original agreement).
Notarization: The document should often be notarized before it is filed.
File with County Recorder’s Office: The release is then recorded with the local county recorder’s office where the original Memorandum was filed, clearing the title.
In summary, a Release of Memorandum and Notice of Agreement is used in Pennsylvania to formally remove a previously recorded memorandum from the public record once the associated contract is no longer in effect. It ensures that the property's title is clear, facilitating future transactions and avoiding legal complications.
Important: Your property must be located in Dauphin County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

I guess I got what I paid for. The site said I would be able to download blank PDF forms that I could fill out on my computer. I expected fillable forms, like I download for taxes. Instead the forms I got could only be completed by using Adobe Sign and Fill tools. These are much harder to use than fillable forms.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Delivery of documents was instantaneous once payment is received. Thank you for that. For future clarification to potential users, Deeds.com may want to categorize the type of easement documents that are available. I was needing a 'utility easement' form and received an 'ingress/egress' form. Had I known it was an ingress/egress document, I would not have made the purchase. Outside of this issue, this site is very helpful for the average layperson to hold guardianship over personal interests.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I sent Deeds.com an email with a question, asking for a little guidance as to which form(s) I need, but I'm waiting for a reply. My wife and I own 3 homes (2 in Indiana & 1 in Florida). We are needing to deed each to ourselves and put them into our living trust. I asked Deeds.com to please help by suggesting which forms I need for this. I do not want to get the wrong ones. I have not received a reply yet. When I receive a helpful reply and am able to purchase the correct forms, I am fairly certain my rating will go from 1 to 5. I withhold judgement until later.
Thank you for your feedback Michael. We make available do it yourself deed documents. We do not prepare documents or provide legal advice. If you have done research and are still unsure of which documents you need we are not the website for you. We highly recommend seeking the advice of a legal professional familiar with your specific situation moving forward. Have a wonderful day.

The product is as advertised. I was unable to navigate this process because It is complicated and I am concerned about doing it wrong. The law is written in stupid language to make it difficult for all and keep the layering business going. Its a solid form but did not work for me. Thanks Chris
Thank you for your feedback Christopher. Sorry to hear that we’re not comfortable completing the process. It is always best to seek the advice of a legal professional is you are not completely sure of what you are doing.

As promised, my forms were immediately ready for download. The forms were exactly what i wanted. I couldnt be happier and i cant even guess how much money i saved. They were even formatted to the exact font, spacing and margin used by my county. It is obvious a lot of time and effort was put into the preparation of these documents. They are absolutely perfect. Check it out, you wont be disappointed and the price is much less than i expected. Don caldwell

This is an extremely user friendly site! I had been searching the internet for days for the proper Gift Deed document. I had no idea that my state, the great state of Mississippi had their own site. I am truly looking forward to using this site for additional available documents. Many more blessings to the creator of this site! Keep them coming! Thank You!

At first I didn't trust all the 5 star reviews. So, I contacted lawyers to check their prices. The price being well over one hundred dollars made my mind up. I gave it a go, the form isn't hard and the directions are easy to follow. 5/5
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
