Questions answered? Let's get started!

Use this form to release a portion of property secured by a deed of trust and promissory note. Example: borrower has financed 4 lots for $100,000.00 which has since been paid down to a balance of $25,000.00. Borrower approaches Lender/grantee and would like the lender to release lot #3 because he has a buyer. The lender might think, ok- he will owe me $25,000.00 on the remaining 3 lots, I consider this a good risk. The same can also be applicable to condominiums, apartments, parcels, etc.

(It is lawful for any lien creditor to record a certificate of partial satisfaction of any one or more of the separate pieces or parcels of property covered by such lien. It shall also be lawful for any such creditor to record a certificate of partial satisfaction of any part of the real estate covered by such lien if a plat of such part or a deed of such part is recorded in the clerk's office and a cross-reference is made in the certificate of partial satisfaction to the book and page where the plat or deed of such part is recorded. Such certificate of partial satisfaction may be accomplished in manner and form prescribed in this chapter for making certificates of satisfaction, except that the creditor, or his duly authorized agent, shall make an affidavit to the clerk or in such certificate that such creditor is at the time of making such satisfaction the legal holder of the obligation, note, bond, or other evidence of debt, secured by such lien, and when made in conformity with the provisions of this chapter such partial satisfaction shall be as valid and binding as a proper release deed duly executed for the same purpose.) ( 55.1-341) Partial satisfaction.

This is the most comprehensive, helpful real estate tool I have seen. I was at first worried because the 330# didn’t have live operators but I received messages in my account as quickly as a conversation had by text and was able to download a deed and record it the same day in a county 1,300 miles away. Highly recommended!
