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 Once the underlying contract is satisfied, terminated, or otherwise no longer in effect, it is essential to release the memorandum of record.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 The memorandum was recorded in error or relates to an offer that has been withdrawn.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.

Important: Your property must be located in Houston County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

The forms, and other information, are all excellent. I would be giving a 5-star review if it were not for the fact that downloading a "bundle" about quitclaim deeds required I download every single file independently (15 files). I would far prefer a zip file, or one click to download the whole pile of independent files.

Example deed given did not apply to married couples as joint owners with both being grantors. The example and directions also did not show how to write more than one grantee as equal grantees. Both would have been helpful when husband and wife are granting their property to their children equally. Also when attaching the exhibit A with the property description the example did not say "see exhibit A"in the property description area, so I didn't write that. Luckily the recorder of deeds allowed me to write it in. I think directions and examples for multiple scenarios would be helpful.
