Common Uses of a Wisconsin Memorandum of Contract
1. Protecting the Buyer Without Exposing Deal Terms
This is the #1 reason people use it.
Records the buyer’s equitable interest
Keeps price, interest rate, default terms, and amortization private
Still gives full constructive notice under Wis. Stat. § 706.05 & § 706.08
Perfect for private seller-financed deals.

2. Seller Financing / Installment Sales
If you’re doing:
Land contract
Contract for deed
Seller carryback
Recording the memorandum:
Prevents the seller from reselling or mortgaging behind the buyer
Avoids clouding title with full contract terms

3. Asset Protection & Privacy
Good choice when:
Parties want to avoid broadcasting purchase price
Deal includes non-standard terms
Seller doesn’t want public scrutiny
Common with:
Family transactions
Estate planning transfers
Investor-to-investor deals

4. Recording-Speed or Simplicity Matters
Memorandums:
Are short
Rarely rejected by registers of deeds
Reduce recording errors (no missing pages, initials, riders)
Useful when:
County recording offices are picky
You’re closing remotely or fast

5. Avoiding Transfer Fee Confusion
In Wisconsin:
Recording a memorandum alone does not trigger a transfer fee
Fee is tied to the deed (when issued)
This avoids premature questions at recording.

6. Preserving Flexibility
If the contract might:
Be amended
Be assigned
Be refinanced later
A memorandum lets you:
Amend the private contract without re-recording sensitive terms
Record a simple Amended Memorandum if needed

Important: Your property must be located in Fond Du Lac County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

status was canceled. said i needed to record directly. would be 5 stars if it worked.

Reply from Staff

Sorry for the inconvenience Roger. Unfortunately, not all jurisdictions in the country have progressed to the point of being able to accept all document types for e-recording.

I like that the quit claim form was fill in the blank on my computer instead of online, made it so much easier than having to do everything at once, at the mercy of the internet connection. Will refer others here.

descriptions for some areas were longer than what would print out on document - it showed and was visible on the form but would not print out - for example in the legal description. would be nice in fill in areas could be extended as needed

Was a bit skeptical because I'd never heard of it, but just got something submitted and confirmed recorded in less than 24 hrs. UI could use some work but other than that, straightforward and works!
