Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Memorandum of Installment Land Contract 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 Once the underlying contract is satisfied, terminated, or otherwise no longer in effect, it is essential to release the memorandum of record.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 in Tennessee
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 The memorandum was recorded in error or relates to an offer that has been withdrawn.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 Tennessee only.

Easement deed contract was easy to complete, however after additional research raises some concerns because the Ohio deed does not list a requirement for witness signatures and does not provide lines or an area for witness signatures. The document does provide the necessary area for the notary information and the grantor and grantee.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

THIS SERVICE IS DIFFICULT TO USE AND TROUBLESOME, IN MY PROFESSIOBAL OPINION; a true NUGHTMARE! As a Title / Petroleum Land Professional (Landman), I use a wide variert of online title research tools and services. Mist are EXTREMELY COMPREHENSIVE, and relatively easy to perform one’s research. I am beginning to beliece that there is no search intrrfaxe here; just a long list of instructions full of circular references that simply tuns the researcher around and around to the same pages repeatedly. This service takes users NOWHERE. Good luck to those seeking to waste their time reading a vast set of redundant words and NO INTERFACE FOR CREATING OR EXECUTING AN AXTUAL SEARCH.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're genuinely sorry to hear about the difficulties you faced while using our service. As a Title / Petroleum Land Professional, your experience is invaluable to us, and we regret that our website did not meet your expectations.
We are committed to making the necessary changes to enhance our platform and provide a better experience for all users, including professionals like yourself.

I got a blank, a sample and detailed instructions, I'm happy. If the recorder's office had a form as they like to see, with your name as they like to see, and the property name as they like to see, no one would ever pay a lawyer for this but a little time to look up the exact names and this package you're all set. I recommend this because, while it isn't difficult, making a mistake could be very bad so getting the details right for a particular county is well worth the cost.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
