Reason 83 - Your Real Estate Agent Helps You Mediate in Contingency Clauses
In real estate trading, there is so-called “contingency for sale” measure. It is a bond that ties the seller and buyer, if both are half-way to signing a purchase agreement. Based on the official appraisal value obtained from registered appraisers, the property will be priced based on the declared appraised value shown to interested buyers.
Usually, the “contingency” clause in the process of closing a deal is applied within 24-hour allowance. This is to give way for buyer to re-think and review his decision to finally buy the property. At the same time, “contingency” agreement allows sellers to look for other interested buyers who might be willing to jack up the selling price of the property.
Realtors can help you to mediate in this process too. They can provide you with appraiser’s information and also remove contingency. Removing the contingency measure effects on the event that the seller accepts an offer and signs an agreement with another buyer, pending the notice to pursue purchase agreement with the other buyer.
The seller on the other hand, can return the down-payment made by the first potential buyer, if the buyer does not remove the contingency for sale
The buyer can give notice to perform it can be 24 hours or more as given by seller. The seller can return the earnest money deposit to buyer, if buyer does not remove contingency for-sale agreement.
