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 Shawano County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.
This Memorandum of Contract meets all recording requirements specific to Shawano County.

Great service! Super easy to use! I used the service to download a deed notice to do a TOD on a property in Fairfax County, VA. Just a heads up that Fairfax County required me to add the last deed book and page # onto the deed notice but otherwise all was just as they required!
Thank you!

We were extremely satisfied with DEEDS.COM. We spent countless hours trying to contact the Queens County Clerk's Office without succeeding to get through. We needed to obtain an Executor's Deed to transfer the name on my beloved deceased father's property to my name as the executrix of his will. DEEDS.COM is the most efficient and painless way to get the forms you need. To top it all off, they send you, free of charge, additional forms that you may need for your filing purposes. We are truly thankful for their kind assistance!!
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

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!

The boxes do not allow you to add the entire information. The after recording return to box would not let me add a zipcode.
Thanks for the feedback Rhonda, we’ll take a look at that input field.

I was annoyed when I realized I couldn't put the document into Word or WordPerfect. I had to retype the entire document. What a waste of time and money.
Sorry to hear of your annoyance. We have canceled your order and payment. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.
