What are the typical contingencies in a purchase offer?
There are two typical contingencies in a offer: A financing contingency, which makes the purchase conditional on the buyers’ ability to obtain a loan commitment from a lender. An inspection contingency, which allows the buyers to have professionals inspect the property to their action. A deposit could be forfeited by the buyers under certain circumstances, such as the buyers backing out for a reason not provided for in the contract. The purchase contract must include the sellers’ responsibilities such as passing clear title, maintaining the property in its present condition until closing, and making any agreed upon repairs to the property.
