Elements Of An Offer

There are six key components:

1 - Price

Depending on the local market conditions and information provided by me, the price you offer may be different from the seller's price.

2 - Deposit

Your deposit shows good faith and will be applied against the purchase of the home when the sale closes. The market and myself will advise you on an appropriate amount.

3 - Terms

Includes the total price offered and the financing details. I can help you arrange your financing or one can ask to assume the seller's mortgage, especially if it has an attractive interest rate.

4 - Conditions

These might include "subject to home inspection", "subject to you obtaining financing", or "subject to you selling your property". I will help you with these conditions.

5 - Inclusions or Exclusions

These might include appliances and certain fixtures or decorative items, such as window coverings or mirrors. These items would remain in the house unless excluded.

6 - Closing or Possession Date

Generally, the day the title of the property is legally transferred and the transaction of funds finalized.
