A Rhode Island Memorandum of Purchase and Sale Agreement is a document that once recorded in the land records provides public notice of an existing purchase and sale agreement for real property without disclosing sensitive details like price or contingencies.
Purpose:
• Protects Buyer’s Interest: Notifies third parties (e.g., lenders, potential buyers) of the buyer’s contractual rights, preventing the seller from selling or encumbering the property.
• Privacy: Keeps the full purchase and sale agreement’s terms confidential.
• Facilitates Financing: Provides proof of a contract for lenders or title companies.
Common Scenarios:
• Delayed Closings: Used when closing is postponed (e.g., awaiting zoning, environmental approvals, or permits), common in commercial or development deals.
• Seller-Financed Sales/Purchase and Sales Agreements: Secures the buyer’s interest during installment payments before deed transfer.
• Option Agreements: Notifies others of a buyer’s option or right of first refusal.
• Investment Transactions: Protects the buyer’s stake before full payment or improvements.
Key Features
• Legal Authority: Recordable under R.I. Gen. Laws §34-13-1 and §34-13-2 as an instrument affecting title.
• Requirements: Must be written, signed, notarized, and include a property description. Recorded at the city/town clerk’s office.
• Limitations: Does not transfer title, create a lien, or trigger conveyance tax/residency affidavits.
• For use in Rhode Island only.
Important: Your property must be located in Kent County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

I would appreciate being able to increase the size of the blocks such as the Grantor block and the legal description block where information is enter on the form and to adjust the font. Otherwise great product,
Thank you for your feedback Michael. We do wish we could make that an option. Unfortunately, adhering to formatting requirements (specifically margin requirements) leaves a finite amount of space available on the page.

Your company was great, you all walked me through every step of the process. With the pandemic and the inability to go into the DC Recorder of Deeds office. I look forward to working with you in the future.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I was very pleased with the ease in use of the forms. I suggest making sure the sample copy is totally aligned with the exact same parts. I was a little confused about the portion "Subject to.." It was easy to make corrections, additions, etc because the page remained open, and I didn't have to re=open the forms continuously.
Thank you!

The Transfer on Death Deed paperwork was easy to complete, as it included a detailed guide and a completed example. We encountered no issues recording the document with our County. Thanks to Deeds.com, we were also able to save time and money by utilizing a DIY approach for our situation.
We are delighted to have been of service. Thank you for the positive review!

I was introduced to Deeds.com from my title company. I wanted the title company to do a courtesy recording for me and they suggested Deeds.com. Best suggestion in a while. The interface to use the website was seemlessly easy. The communication with the service staff was thorough and prompt. After the initial verification process (which the photo app was a little tricky), everything was easy. Will use them again.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!
