In the first instance, if your deed is not recorded, there is nothing in the public record to stop the seller from conveying the property to another person.The second situation could happen if your seller fails to pay his or her debts and the seller's creditors file liens or judgments against your property.
Failure to record a deed effectively makes it impossible for the public to know about the transfer of a property. That means the legal owner of the property appears to be someone other than the buyer, a situation that can generate serious ramifications.
A memorandum of agreement is a proposed transaction summary that is circulated to lawyers and brokers representing both the buyer and the seller after an accepted offer has been negotiated.
Contrary to normal expectations, the Deed DOES NOT have to be recorded to be effective or to show delivery, and because of that, the Deed DOES NOT have to be signed in front of a Notary Public. However, if you plan to record it, then it does have to be notarized as that is a County Recorder requirement.
Make no mistake, one can still do a lease-option in Texas, but many requirements now exist that did not apply before 2005. Property Code Sections 5.069 and 5.070 contain a number of these requirements, which must be met before the executory contract is signed by the purchaser (i.e., before and not at closing).
This means that if you default and can?t make your payments, you lose the property and all of the money you have already paid into it (often including repairs and improvements). Unlike a traditional mortgage, a defaulting buyer in a contact for deed may only have 30-60 days to cure the default or move out.
Memorandum of Agreement (MOA): An MOA is a document written between parties to cooperatively work together on an agreed upon project or meet an agreed upon objective. The purpose of an MOA is to have a written formal understanding of the agreement between parties.
The buyer should record the contract for deed with the county recorder where the land is located and does so normally within four months after the contract is signed, though the time may vary depending on state law.
This Standard Document is a recordable instrument used to provide third parties with constructive notice of a purchase option encumbering California commercial real property.
