A purchase and sale agreement is the contract that sets the terms for buying real estate, including price, contingencies, and closing date. It may also include disclosures and timelines that determine how the deal progresses. A real estate attorney helps ensure accuracy and enforceability of these terms.
Usually both the buyer and seller sign the agreement; if one party is represented by counsel, the attorney may review drafts and provide guidance. If a corporation or trust is involved, an authorized signatory may sign for that entity.
Common contingencies in California include financing, appraisal, and property condition disclosures. Contingencies define conditions under which parties can cancel or renegotiate the contract.
Closing timelines vary by market, but Sedco Hills typically ranges from 30 to 60 days after acceptance, depending on lender requirements and title clearance. Your contract will specify dates and extensions can be negotiated.
If contingencies are not met, the contract may terminate or be renegotiated. Earnest money may be refunded or forfeited according to the agreement’s provisions.
California requires disclosures such as property condition, natural hazard, and lead-based paint where applicable. The seller is typically responsible for disclosures, while buyers may request additional due diligence.
Yes, depending on the contract terms; some contracts allow termination under specified conditions. There may be penalties or loss of earnest money if termination occurs outside permitted rights.
