Questions answered? Let's get started!

A Contract for Deed is a Seller financing agreement:
The seller/vendor retains legal title to the property until the buyer/vendee honors the contract.
The buyer takes possession upon the terms set in the contract.
When the purchase price is fully paid, the seller delivers a Warranty Deed (or other deed) transferring legal title.

A South Dakota Contract for Deed is often used when:
The buyer cannot meet the terms for bank financing.
-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’s valid for both residential and commercial/agricultural property, as long as:
Both parties are competent adults,
The property is legally describable, and
This contract complies with SD recording requirements or offers the option to record a Memorandum of Contract for Deed.

The contract is binding when signed by both parties.
If the buyer defaults, the seller can either:
-Cancel (forfeit) the contract after proper notice under SDCL §21-50, or
-Foreclose it judicially

For use in South Dakota only.
