(6) Rhode Island Address. The Rhode Island street address as well as the names of the County and State of the Grantor’s home are required entries to this statement as these items will aid in establishing the identity of the Rhode Island Property Owner releasing his or her real property as the Grantor.

IV. Sum Of Consideration

(7) Payment Submitted For Rhode Island Property. The payment the Rhode Island Grantor received for the real estate requires recording. The Rhode Island property payment should be written out and displayed numerically. Two distinct areas are available so this information can be documented properly.

V. Rhode Island Grantee

(8) Rhode Island Grantee Name. The Rhode Island Property Buyer that will take over the property as a result of this document’s action will have to be named so that he or she can properly do so. A record of this Party’s entire legal name will be needed in this statement.

The officially filed legal description of the Rhode Island Property should be obtained from the deed that is currently in effect (before this document is signed) or directly from the Rhode Island Land Evidence Department. After obtaining this legal description dispense it to this document precisely as it is written in its registered language.

VII. Notarized Signing Of Rhode Island Grantor

Since the Rhode Island Grantor will release all his or her claim on the property and will relinquish ownership of it, he or she will need to provide a verifiable signature. The State of Rhode Island, therefore, requires the act of signing that must be performed to be done so with the participation of a Notary Public. Once the Rhode Island Grantor and Notary Public have gathered, the Rhode Island Grantor should sign then print his or her name to prove his or her intent to release the property to the Grantee(s) named in this document.

(13) Address Of Rhode Island Grantor. Part of this signing’s requirement will be that the Rhode Island Grantor submit a production of his or her home address when signing this document.

(14) Notarization Of Rhode Island Signing. The Notary Public who has gathered with the Rhode Island Grantor will work to prove the notarization process has been engaged. Proof of this process will be submitted by the Notary Public directly to this document using its final section.
