Subordination Agreements
Usually, mortgages do not affect
easement transactions. If the mortgage
holder needs to consent to the easement,
we will ask the mortgage holder for a
signed statement known as a
subordination agreement, which
subordinates the rights of the mortgage
to those of the easement. Payment of
easements where there is a mortgage or
contract for deed is dependent on the
mortgage holder or the contract seller
and the terms of the landowner’s
agreement with them. They may require
that all or part of the money be applied
to the mortgage or contract balance, or
they may allow the entire payment to go
to the landowner.
Requests for Approval—Other
Improvements
Existing farm sites and other
permanent structures are excluded from
grassland easements. Planning for future
improvements or expansions of existing
farm sites or structures is important and
should be considered at the time the
easement is executed, when practical.
Requests for improvements may be
allowed and will require prior Service
approval. To avoid easement violations,
landowners must contact their local
Service representative before
manipulating permanent vegetative
cover on easement lands.
Requests for Approval—Mowing Before
July 15th
Mowing before July 15 to control
weeds is prohibited without prior
written approval by the Service.
Notification Requirement—Sale or
Transfer of Lands
Easements, and the associated
covenants and agreements, run with the
land and are binding on all persons and
entities who come into ownership or
possession of the lands subject to the
easement. The landowner must notify
the Regional Director in writing of any
sale or transfer at least 30 days
following the sale or transfer of any
portion of the lands subject to this
easement.
Recordkeeping Requirements
Landowners may be required to
maintain and/or furnish documentation
such as records of ownership, sales,
property characteristics, and
