Questions answered? Let's get started!
A recorded mortgage does not end with the lender's life. When the individual who held a mortgage on Vermont real property dies, the mortgage stays on the town land records as an open encumbrance until a discharge enters the record, and the signature that clears it comes from the estate: 27 V.S.A. § 463 names the mortgagee's executor and administrator among those who may execute the statutory acknowledgment of satisfaction. This Vermont Discharge of Mortgage (Personal Representative) form is arranged for exactly that signature, a court-appointed executor or administrator discharging a mortgage the deceased lender held. Customers sometimes search for the same instrument as a satisfaction of mortgage, a mortgage release, or a mortgage lien release signed by an estate.
A discharge signed for the lender's estate
The form carries one fiduciary signer and one acknowledgment certificate. A dedicated section collects the estate details: the decedent's name as it appears on the recorded mortgage, the date of death, the fiduciary capacity, the Probate Division unit, the case number, and the date the letters issued, so the recorded instrument shows on its face who signed and under what authority. The operative section then states that the personal representative acts in that fiduciary capacity and not individually, acknowledges satisfaction of the secured debt, and discharges and releases the mortgage together with all interest in the mortgaged premises held by virtue of it.
The pattern that presents this configuration most often is seller financing. An owner sold Vermont property, took back a mortgage from the buyer, and died while the mortgage remained of record; in many files the payoff finished years earlier and no discharge was ever recorded. The borrower's title stays clouded either way, and the personal representative of the mortgagee's estate holds the statutory authority to clear it. A living mortgagee signing personally, a bank acting through an officer, and co-executors signing together each present a different signing configuration; this form recites a single personal representative.
The certification the statute prescribes
27 V.S.A. § 463 supplies the language: an acknowledgment of satisfaction substantially in the statutory form, certifying that the described mortgage is paid in full and satisfied and identifying the mortgagor, the mortgagee, the date of the mortgage, the book and page where it is recorded, and the town whose land records hold it. The form carries that certification with a blank at each element the statute leaves open, completed to mirror the recorded mortgage so the discharge indexes against the instrument it terminates. Under § 463(b), a satisfaction acknowledged before a town clerk, notary public, master, county clerk, or judge or register of probate, and recorded, discharges the mortgage and bars actions brought on it. An optional section identifies any recorded assignment of the mortgage, the chain 27 V.S.A. § 464(b) points to when it calls for any instrument necessary to show record ownership of the mortgage and authority to execute the discharge.
Thirty days, and a town-by-town record
Vermont gives the discharge duty teeth. Within 30 days after full performance of the conditions of the mortgage, 27 V.S.A. § 464 requires execution and delivery of a valid and complete discharge, and it attaches statutory damages of $25.00 per day, up to $5,000.00 in the aggregate, for a discharge withheld past that window, along with consequential damages, punitive damages, court costs, and attorney's fees for an aggrieved party who substantially prevails. An estate that resolves the discharge promptly closes that exposure.
Recording is municipal. Vermont keeps land records town by town, with no county recording system, so the completed discharge goes to the town or city clerk of the town named in the certification, and a mortgage recorded in more than one town is discharged in each of them. The statewide recording fee is $15.00 per page under 32 V.S.A. § 1671(a), and no property transfer tax return accompanies a discharge, because the Vermont Department of Taxes places discharges outside the Form PTT-172 filing category.

Nancy C. 3 out of 5 stars
Very disappointed that you had certain documents but did not have the accompanying documents needed to complete the transfer. I also had issues with the documents not allowing you to fill in the pages... example the document was prefilled in as so ... Page 1 of_____ but you could not fill in the blank... I tried reaching out to your customer service, but they had no solution for me. So, I had to write in the page, which didn't look professional. I think I could have gotten documents just as good for free if I'd research a little longer.
Thank you for your feedback, Nancy.
The Virginia Transfer on Death Deed and the Virginia Transfer on Death Beneficiary Affidavit are separate documents and are offered individually because many customers only need one, depending on their situation. In your case, the affidavit was later ordered separately.
Regarding the page numbering (“Page 1 of ___”), that field is intentionally left blank. The total number of pages is not known until the document is finalized, signed, notarized, and all attachments (such as exhibits or legal descriptions) are included. It is standard practice to complete that portion by hand at execution so the final page count accurately reflects the recorded document.
We are unable to locate a customer service inquiry associated with your order, but we are always glad to assist when contacted directly.
We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best with your transfer.

The forms are very confusing when there is so much to download! Trying to keep track and make sure you have everything needed is terrible! I think I have everything but I was under the impression I would be filling it out online and with instructions... I am very disappointed to say the least!
Sorry to hear of your disappointment Helen. We have gone ahead and canceled your order and payment. We do hope that you are able to find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

I am very satisfied with the quality of the product I ordered. I have done similar property transfers/recording in the past on my own but paying for the forms and guidance is well worth it. The AI question area is extremely helpful. The example for the forms is perfect (as it has to be). I will absolutely use Deeds.com in the future for any related property needs. A+
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I saved a ton of money doing it on my own versus through legal counsel. When I took it to the auditor/recorder today, there was absolutely no problems.

This was a very easy and pleasant experience using your website. I needed a legal document and with the sample and instructions it was easy to complete (with the fillable PDF) and print a clean document ready for execution.
Thanks, Ann! We’re happy to hear everything went smoothly for you and that the process met your needs. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

I ended up loading the same file twice and was unable to delete one of them. I did send e request in to have one deleted and I did get a response back that only one file was processed. This was done in a timely manner but required more additional time. It would have been nice to be able to delete the file myself and finish the process at the same time. Other than this every thing did go very well. Thank you
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
