An Offer to Purchase is more than just paperwork to secure the property you want. Once an offer has been properly accepted, it can become a binding agreement between the buyer and seller. That’s why it’s important to understand the terms before putting pen to paper.
Look beyond the purchase price and make sure you are clear on things like:
• Conditions linked to the sale
• Finance and deposit requirements
• Important dates and deadlines
• Occupation arrangements
• Costs and responsibilities
• What happens if something doesn’t go according to plan
A little clarity at the start can help prevent much bigger complications later.
