Various Real Estate Contracts Can Lead to Disputes in Bowie, Maryland
From start to finish, contracts govern real estate transactions. If even one of those contracts leads to a dispute, the entire transaction could fall through. Your contracts may include:
- Listing Agreements: If you are the seller and use a realtor, you will specify various terms in a contract. For example, those terms may include the listing period and the realtor's commission.
- Purchase Agreements: As a seller or buyer, once an offer is made and accepted, a contract will be signed that will include various terms. For instance, a seller may agree to make specific repairs or pay a portion of the closing costs. A buyer may make the purchase contingent upon a clean title with no liens, selling their previous property, or a favorable appraisal or inspection. The parties can specify the closing date and various other requirements in their purchase agreement contract.
- Assignment Contracts: When a property is under contract, meaning a purchase agreement has been reached, the buyer and seller both have certain rights. Sometimes, investors may enter into a purchase agreement with a seller to gain the right to buy that property with the intention of selling that right to another buyer at a profit. Investors can transfer their right to purchase the property to another buyer through an assignment contract.
- Construction Contracts: Home builders often purchase large tracts of land and then subdivide them, building houses for individual buyers. In these cases, the builder will sell both the completed home and land to the buyer. In other cases, landowners can contract with a builder to construct a home on property they already own. These contracts set various terms regarding the features of the home being built, price, and other important considerations.
- Rental or Lease Agreements: Landlords and tenants typically sign contracts that specify each party's obligations for a rental or leased property. Those obligations might include payment amounts and dates, penalties for late payments, and who is responsible for specific kinds of upkeep.
Sometimes, a power of attorney may be necessary to complete your transaction. That is a type of contract, too.
