Reselling home uncontested note non payment

[Tony Gatto]

We sold a home with land to a friend. They are uncontestedly (is that a word)  giving up the home and there by forfeting on the payments. I did record the note at the county.  

The question i have is can i just send the purcheser a letter and have them sign off on the home. Then just sell the home to another buyer ?   

My thinking is if they sign off via a letter that could be recorded and they are eliminated out of the chain of title. 

Please advise
