Rick,

In your second sentence I think you meant to say, "...buyer does NOT get a deed or title....."

--------Ward

============


: This instrument is sometimes called a contract for deed, too. Not very common isn my part of the world since the 1970's but still used frequently in the mid-west and eastern states, especially where selling on installments (aka seller terms or seller financing).

: In this technique, seller does NOT get a deed or title until they have satisfied the terms of the contract.

: In my state, The primary downside for the seller is that it is necessary to foreclose on a defaulting buyer (vendee) using such an instrument. Downside to buyer is that, evem if the buyer performs as agreed, seller may not produce the transfer doc (deed) in a timely basis (such as when they've died!) and this plays havoc with the buyer's ability to gain marketable title.
