Use this form to sell/buy a property, there is NO financing, just a down payment received then balance due at closing. On this date, the buyer pays the purchase price (minus any deposits or earnest money already paid), the seller transfers ownership of the property to the buyer, and both parties sign all necessary documents. This date is agreed upon by both the buyer and the seller and specified in the contract.
Key aspects of the closing date include:
1. Timing: It is usually set a few weeks to a few months after the contract is signed,
Closing Process: Transfer of Ownership. At the closing, the Seller will transfer all of its ownership of the property to the Buyer via Deed. The Seller represents that it has never sold or transferred any of its right title or interest in the Property or done anything to encumber same. The Seller agrees that it shall do nothing between now and the time of Closing to sell or transfer any of its right title or interest in the Property or do anything to encumber same.

2. Adjustments: Sometimes, the closing date may need to be adjusted if there are delays in meeting contingencies or other unforeseen issues.

Relevant statutes and general principles that apply:
1. Title 46:2A - Recording of Instruments: 46:2A-1: Requires the recording of real property conveyances, including contracts for deed, to be recorded in the county where the property is located. This provides public notice and helps protect the buyer's interest in the property.

2. Title 46:3 - Form and Construction of Conveyances: 46:3-1 to 46:3-18: Governs the formal requirements of conveyances, including contracts for deed. These sections cover the necessary language, execution, and acknowledgment requirements to make a conveyance valid and enforceable.

3. Title 46:8B - The Condominium Act: 46:8B-21: Addresses the rights and obligations of parties in a condominium context, which can be relevant if the property under a contract for deed is a condominium unit.

I was introduced to Deeds.com from my title company. I wanted the title company to do a courtesy recording for me and they suggested Deeds.com. Best suggestion in a while. The interface to use the website was seemlessly easy. The communication with the service staff was thorough and prompt. After the initial verification process (which the photo app was a little tricky), everything was easy. Will use them again.

I liked having the forms. Some may need to know they can look at the legal Description from online county records, then type up in Word document line by line, the degree sign in Word program is achieved by using alt and 248 on number pad. Then on the form page one write SEE Exibit A and title your Word program description as Exibit A. Goes without saying the legal description should be looked over many times and it is easier to do so if you format your Word the same lineage as the legal description online which is usually not text which is why you have to retype it.
