<br />
WYOMING CASE LAW<br />
<br />
Under an arrangement for the conveyance of real property pursuant to an executory installment contract, the seller agrees to accept payments from the buyer, usually over a period of time, until the price set by the contract has been paid. When that condition is satisfied, the seller is bound to deliver a deed to the buyer. At all times prior to the final payment and the delivery of the deed, even though the buyer usually has possession, legal title remains vested in the seller. The interest of the buyer is equitable, not legal. In re Estate of Ventling, 771 P.2d 388 (1989)<br />
<br />
Judgment liens do not attach to the equitable interest of a purchaser of land under a contract for deed or an installment land contract. Id.<br />
<br />
The fundamental difference distinguishing a mortgage from an installment land contract, at least in states applying a lien theory to mortgages, is that, in a mortgage, fee title has vested in the purchaser/mortgagor. Metropolitan Mortgage & Sec.Co. v. Belgarde, 816 P.2d 868 (1991)<br />
<br />
When a question as to the nature of the transaction arises, however, and in order for a court to find a mortgage, it must be shown that the parties intended a mortgage transaction rather than an installment land contract; i.e., there must have been an intent to create a security, as construed from the written agreement and the surrounding circumstances.
