Description

The Installment Contract for Deed in New York is a legal instrument used in real estate transactions, allowing a purchaser to buy property by making structured payments over time, rather than paying the full purchase price upfront. Key features of this form include the establishment of purchase price, interest rates, payment terms, and conditions related to default and remedies for non-payment. It specifies that the buyer makes monthly payments, which begin on a predetermined date, and outlines the consequences of late payments, including late fees. Particularly, the seller retains a purchase money security interest in the property until the purchase price is fully paid. The document emphasizes clarity by requiring signatures from both the seller and purchaser, ensuring all parties understand the contract terms. This form is especially useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who facilitate property transactions, enabling them to provide clear guidance to clients about payment structures and legal obligations. The Installment Contract for Deed serves as a practical solution for individuals unable to secure full financing upfront, providing an orderly process for property transfer while protecting seller interests.
