Questions answered? Let's get started!
When is this document used?
When a property is sold, and a Contract has been executed by both parties this Memorandum document is often recorded in the county where the subject property is located instead of the actual Contract. Stating - Seller has agreed to sell, and Buyer has agreed to buy, the Property upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Contract.
Why a Memorandum of Contract?
Privacy - When parties want to keep financial details of a Contract for Deed, Land Contract or Buy-Sell Agreement private, a Memorandum is recorded.
Notice - puts the world on notice that a Contract between buyer and seller exists on a specific property.
Legal - legal binding agreement between buyer and seller concerning the property in question.
Protection - Often filed by buyers alone, after a contract has been executed, preventing loans or encumbrances being placed on the property by existing Deed holder. Encumbrances have been placed on properties even though the Contract states they can't. This can be devastating for a buyer who has made payments. A Memorandum is an effective instrument to prevent this. In short, either the Contract or Memorandum should be recorded for your protection.
Seller Financing - When the buyer chooses or is obligated to obtain bank financing a Memorandum legitimizes the purchase agreement, providing proof to the bank that a deal was in place. Most banks will require that the Contract or Memorandum be recorded before they will finance the property in question.

The documents were received on time. There is one thing I would like to ask besides adding exhibits for spaces that put information is there a way to adjust the template a little to just add maybe another line or two without having to put this on an exhibit or additional page?. I would like to thank you for the documents everything was so professional thank you
Thank you, Mary. Glad the documents arrived on time and worked well for you.
On your question: the forms are formatted to meet county recording requirements, so the spacing in each section is fixed. When the information you need to include runs longer than the space provided, attaching it as an exhibit is the accepted method and recorders handle it routinely. It won’t affect how the document is reviewed or recorded.
We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.

When I brought this deed to the county assessor, they were so impressed that I had done it correctly on my first try, and said they wished everyone would do such a good job on their paperwork.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

This is the first time that I have used this service. An employee at the Clerk and Register office in Arizona suggested that I try Deeds.com to find the form I needed and the county office could not provide. I am a licensed Realtor in Colorado with a 43-year career and this service has not been necessary in my own state but it was extremely helpful in finding a form in Arizona. Five star rating for the very user-friendly website!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I found all the forms I needed to complete a Quit Claim Deed on Deeds.com. All the forms are available for download to fill in on my laptop computer. So far the experience has been very good. My only issue would be that the Quit Claim instructions could be more thorough and easier to understand. I am guessing that the State of New Jersey made up the instructions? Unfortunately this has cost me a huge amount of extra time to parse out EXACTLY the terms I need to write on the Quit Claim Deed form. I haven't started the Tax Forms, but hope they will be more straightforward. In general, I DO recommend Deeds.com!
Thanks for the recommendation, Sharon. We appreciate you flagging the New Jersey instructions, and we'll review them with an eye toward making things clearer and more straightforward. Feedback like yours is how we keep improving.
