Regarding Land Contract?

Question

I reside in Oregon but am selling land that is in Michigan to a Michigan residence. On the contract under default it reads--

Seller may take appropriate action against Purchaser for collection of same according to the laws of the State of ?????

(do I put Oregon (where I live) or Michigan (where the land is)???

And do I need to have it notarized?

Please only answer if you have carried deed contracts, are a real estate agent or work for a title company.

Answer 1

Since the property is located in Michigan, the laws of the State of Michigan control how the property would need to be repossessed.  The state of residence of the seller is irrelevant.

It is not required that it be notarized, but is an excellent idea to do so.

Answer 2

The state where the land is located is the controlling authority/ has jurisdiction over any issue arising from the land
