Complete Legal South Carolina Mortgage Satisfaction Forms For Free

A deed of reconveyance, also known as a satisfaction of mortgage, is a document that proves you've paid off your mortgage. The deed of reconveyance releases the lien the mortgage lender placed on your property. You'll need this document to prove a clear title when you sell your home.

If the satisfaction of mortgage isn't recorded, the property owner may have trouble when they try to refinance or sell the property. They'll have to chase down the discharge documents and get them recorded in order to clear the title. It can even cause a delay to the closing.

What is the difference between a Deed of Reconveyance and Satisfaction of Mortgage? A Deed of Reconveyance states that the debt that was outlined in a Deed of Trust has been fully paid, and a Satisfaction of Mortgage indicates that a mortgage loan that was specified in a Mortgage Agreement has been fully paid.

Whether you get a deed of reconveyance, a full reconveyance or a satisfaction of mortgage document, it means the same thing: your loan has been repaid in full and the lender no longer has an interest in your property. In short, your home is finally all yours!

In addition the following information should be included: The Payee Name. The Owner(s) of the mortgage holder. Total amount of mortgage. Mortgage date of execution. Full and legal description of the property to include tax parcel number. Acknowledgement that all payments have been made in full.

How do you get a Satisfaction of Mortgage? A Satisfaction of Mortgage is issued by the lender after they have received the final mortgage payment from the borrower. It's signed by the mortgagee (in the presence of a witness in some states and counties) and then notarized by a registered notary public.
