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 Once the underlying contract is satisfied, terminated, or otherwise no longer in effect, it is essential to release the memorandum of record.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 The memorandum was recorded in error or relates to an offer that has been withdrawn.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

I find your forms hard to use, inasmuch as the forms cannot be converted to a Word Document. Editing and deleting of extra lines is not possible, making for a deed with large blank spaces. Document that results is not usable for me.

Good after I figured out the form process. Hopefully I won't be charged for two as I redid the request thinking I might have made a mistake in the first request.
