Canceling Deeds of Trust and Mortgages By Recording a Notice of Satisfaction

Record #:
20484
Abstract:
The 1987 NC General Assembly enacted a statute to allow a trustee to cancel a deed of trust by recording a notice of satisfaction. This bulletin attempts to answer some of the questions registers of deeds continue to have regarding this method of cancellation. Campbell discusses three topics in the Bulletin: execution of a notice of satisfaction by the trustee or mortgagee, the necessary elements of a notice of satisfaction, and the register's entry of satisfaction when the notice is recorded.
