Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Memorandum of Contract for Deed is typically recorded to provide public notice of a buyer’s equitable interest in real property under an installment sale arrangement. Once the underlying contract is satisfied, terminated, or otherwise no longer in effect, it is essential to release the memorandum of record.
Common reasons to release a Memorandum of Contract for Deed in South Dakota:
1. The contract has been fully performed, and the deed has been delivered and recorded.
2. The contract has expired without full performance.
3. The contract has been canceled or terminated, whether by mutual agreement or default.
4. The memorandum was recorded in error or relates to an offer that has been withdrawn.
Why release is required:
Failure to record a release may result in a “cloud on title,” hindering the seller or buyer from subsequently selling, refinancing, or insuring the property, as the memorandum constitutes a recorded claim against the property.
For use in South Dakota only.

I ordered the Deed package for my state of NJ and the county I needed to prepare the documents. I was able to complete everything that is required to close on an investment property. Fast easy with step by step instructions no matter your situation. Definitely will recommend to family & friends. Save $ instead of paying others to do the same thing you can do yourself.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

After my county rejected a deed from another company, I researched better and purchased my Lady Bird Deed from Deeds.com. Very simple, received everything immediately. Printed out sample and guide sheets and filled out my deed. Very thorough and easy to understand. All the additional forms were awesome. And the best part is, my county recorded my deed this morning! WooHoo! Very happy customer! Thank you!
Glad to hear! Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We appreciate you. Have a great day.

Easy fill in the blanks form. Just FYI make sure you have a copy of whatever deed you are changing and the tax records. You will want the language to be identical.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

This is a fantastic website and financial savings to many. Being able to download and complete the document I needed vs having my attorney complete saved me $800. I would highly recommend this website.

I could not be happier with the service. Shortly after I uploaded my documents, my package was prepared and invoiced. It was only minutes before the document was recorded with the County I selected and returned to me with their seal for download.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
