Attorneys for interested buyers are given a three-day period of time to look over the contract and point out any issues. Since real estate transactions involve a lot of money due to the value of a home and how large of an investment it is, it may be best to acquire an attorney. With an attorney’s help, you can be better prepared to handle this encounter of facing a real estate agent’s experience. You will have the legal guidance to make sure that the document is reasonable.
During the three-day period of time, your attorney can suggest changes to the contract. Both parties are able to negotiate on parts of the contract in order to reach a better outcome that satisfies both parties. After the three days have concluded, the parties can sign a final document to agree on the revisions being made to the original document regarding the real estate transaction. Either party is allowed to decline signing the contract before signing the final addendum. Once the final addendum is signed, the contract is legally binding.
What should I expect when selling my house?
