A Notice of Termination must be sent to all parties who have filed a Notice of Contract, if the contract has been terminated prior to the filing or recording of a Notice of Substantial Completion. M.G.L. Ch. 254, 2(b). If the contract is terminated, the owner must execute and file or record a Notice of Termination in the registry of deeds for the county where the subject property is located. Id.
The Notice of Termination includes the dates of the contract, names of the owner and contractor, and a legal description of the subject property. Id.
A copy of the Notice, indicating the date of filing or recording, must be mailed by the owner, via certified mail with return receipt requested, to every person who has filed or recorded a Notice of Contract and to the contractor. Id. When the contractor receives the Notice of Termination from the owner, the contractor must in turn deliver a copy to every person who has entered into a written contract directly with the contractor or who has given the contractor a written Notice of Identification. Id.
The failure of the owner or contractor to give notice of the filing or recording of the Notice of Termination to any person entitled will not prejudice the rights of any third parties who have relied upon it in good faith and without actual knowledge of such failure of notice. Id.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.
Thanks for the kind words James, glad we could help. Look forward to seeing you again.

Wasn’t what I expected
Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

It was very easy to set up the account but then everything is very costly. I didn't see any publications that were free to account holders, so as infrequently I have to do a title search, I may as well just hire an online service to do the legwork too.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
