Questions answered? Let's get started!
A landlord that is a limited liability company or corporation signs nothing in its own hand: every signature comes from an authorized representative, and every recorded instrument carries that capacity on its face. This Vermont memorandum of lease is built around that fact. It gives record notice of a lease whose lessor is a business entity, under 27 V.S.A. Section 341(c), while the lease itself, with its rent and business covenants, stays off the public record.
Why a long Vermont lease goes on record
Under 27 V.S.A. Section 342, a lease for more than one year is not effectual to hold the estate against any person but the grantor and the grantor's heirs unless it is acknowledged and recorded. A ten-year storefront lease that never reaches the town land records binds its original parties, but the recording statute leaves later purchasers and lenders outside it. Recording the whole lease cures that and publishes every negotiated term along the way. Section 341(c) supplies the middle path: a recorded notice of lease, also called a memorandum of lease or short form of lease, executed and acknowledged by the parties, carrying the statutory content list and nothing more.
The statute names the items: the parties, the date of execution, the term of the lease, the property description, rights of extension or renewal, rights of purchase or first refusal, restrictions on assignment, the addresses set forth in the lease, and the location of the original lease. The form collects each item in its own numbered section, closes with notice language stating that the lease controls over any summary, and ends with signature blocks and an acknowledgment certificate for each signer.
Built for an entity landlord
The lessor section recites the entity's full name, its type and state of organization, and its address as set forth in the lease. The signature section carries a capacity statement, the representative's signature line with printed name and date, and a title line reading in the style of the completed example, Manager, Green Mountain Commons LLC. The representative acknowledges in a representative capacity, and the certificate's name line carries the signer and the entity in the style of 26 V.S.A. Section 5368(2): the signer as an officer, manager, or trustee of the named party.
An LLC that owns a mixed-use building and leases its ground floor, a corporation granting a ground lease for development, a family company renting farmland on a long term, and a solar or telecommunications site lease with an entity owner all present the pattern this form recites. The lessee entry takes the tenant exactly as the lease names it; the completed example shows an individual tenant, and the certificate by-lines accommodate a tenant entity's representative in the same style. A lease whose landlord signs personally presents a different signature and certificate pattern than the entity configuration this form recites.
Recording with the town clerk, and the transfer tax line
Vermont records land instruments by municipality, not by county, so the memorandum goes to the clerk of the town or city where the property is located, at the statewide fee of $15.00 per page under 32 V.S.A. Section 1671. One more statute matters before the counter: under 32 V.S.A. Section 9601, a memorandum of lease that evidences a transfer of title to property is a deed for property transfer tax purposes, and title to property includes a perpetual leasehold, a leasehold of 50 years or more, a shorter term that renewal rights may extend to 50 years or more, and a shorter lease granting both a right to purchase and rights to construct improvements. A memorandum of a lease within those classes records only with a completed Vermont Property Transfer Tax Return; a memorandum of a lease outside them sits outside that definition. The guide describes the statute so the classification question surfaces before the recording trip rather than at the counter.
The download includes the memorandum of lease as a fillable PDF, a completed example showing the form filled in for a realistic Vermont fact pattern, and a plain-language guide that describes every section, the signing formalities, and the recording steps. The materials are informational and are not legal advice; a Vermont attorney can apply these statutes to a particular lease.

Wonderful forms, been coming here for years (since 2012) for my deed forms and they have never failed.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
ELOISA F. 5 out of 5 stars
Once I had everything right;the recording was fast and easy. I was updated at every juncture and apprised of my mistakes in order to fix and record my deed. To improve service: I think that several different examples and scenarios would have helped. If you have different names from your children; birth certificates and marriage certificates are a requirement in Clark County, NV. If you want to add anyone to the deed in a Quit Claim Deed; you have to add yourself as a grantee even if you are the grantor along with the other grantees.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I would give Deeds.com 10 stars if I could!! The staff were super friendly and easy to work with. They kept me constantly updated during the process of uploading and forwarding my deeds for recording. And, the price was extremely reasonable. I look forward to utilizing Deeds.com every time I need to record a deed no matter what U.S. State. I wholeheartedly recommend them!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The affidavit guidance was a great help and helped reduce the stress that usually comes with dealing with legalese. The Preliminary Change of Ownership that CA requires is quite complex since it covers a hoard of situations. I was left with a bit of uncertainty, but I definitely wouldn't want to try it without guidance.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Poor communication. Confusing charges. (Waiting for explanation) overall, not thrilled and at this point would not recommend.
Sorry to hear of your confusion. We've gone ahead and canceled your order. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

Larry M. 5 out of 5 stars
Everything went well except that any information that I typed in on the computer download moves upward so that the letters or numbers are somewhat elevated above the line that should be even with the words on the form. I think it will be acceptable to the county recorder, but I don't especially like to submit things that appear uneven. I asked for help but just received a robotic reply that said to take steps that I already had done. So unless you know a way to correct this I likely won't use your forms again.
Thank you!

Ronald L. 3 out of 5 stars
There is not enough room on the form to describe my property which was taken directly from the previous deed. Other than that worked as expected.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
