-For example, limited/poor credit history or nontraditional income.
Rural property or agricultural land is being sold, where traditional lending is limited.
The seller wants to sell quickly or avoid bank involvement.
Investment or estate sales where seller wants steady income and potential tax deferral.
Small-town or private party sales, common outside Sioux Falls or Rapid City.

It all started out well, then I was abruptly told that I would have to submit the documents directly to the recording office. No explanation was offered and I wasted a lot of time on your website for nothing. Very disappointing, as the concept of e-recording is what is needed in 2026.
We reviewed your order and our support messages. The document uploaded for recording was a very low-quality scan that did not meet the county’s eRecording image requirements. Our staff asked that a clearer scan be uploaded, but the same image was submitted again.
Because the document could not be processed electronically, we advised recording it directly with the county recorder’s office.
E-recording systems require clear, legible document images that meet county standards. When those requirements cannot be met, recording directly with the recorder is often the fastest option.

I would not have ordered this form had I realised how limited the fields are for details. There is no room for elaboration of terms. The language only allows one grantor and one grantee, and the gender and quantity default construction is a poor choice. Be basic, but leave room for more.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Convenient yes, expensive "big YES" and with what I paid to record a lien it cost me close to $50. That seems quite exorbitant in my estimation!!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
