In California, a breach happens when a party fails to perform a material term of the contract, triggering potential remedies and dispute resolution options.
Essential elements include a valid contract, proof of breach, and measurable damages or loss. The process often involves demand letters, discovery, negotiation, and, if needed, litigation or arbitration.
Common terms in breach cases include earnest money, contingencies, title issues, damages, rescission, and specific performance.
A deposit showing serious intent to purchase, held in escrow until closing or release after a breach.
