Below are common terms used in commercial real estate sales, with plain-English explanations.
A contract that outlines the terms of sale, price, contingencies, and responsibilities of buyer and seller.
A defined time period when the buyer can inspect the property, review leases, financials, and compliance issues before finalizing the deal.

A report identifying liens or defects in the property’s title, with insurance to protect against losses from title issues.
