What is the contract of sale and what do we do?
The contract of sale is a legally binding agreement between the parties of the transaction. It should include:
Names and address of the vendor and purchaser
Address of the property
Deposit amount and due date
Sale price
Date of property settlement whether there are any other conditions
Whether the property is available as ‘vacant possession’ or ‘subject to a lease’
Any other property is being sold as part of the deal
Any inclusions or exclusions
Disclosures of the property

One party not willing to negotiate on property price

A bank valuation coming in lower than the asking price
