What is a Real Estate Sale Agreement?

No real estate transaction is complete without the negotiation and signing of a Sale Agreement (also called an Agreement of Sale or Purchase Agreement). At its most basic, a Sale Agreement is just an agreement between a buyer and a seller to sell a piece of real estate. In reality, though, it's more complicated than that.

The difference between this and a typical agreement is that the title or deed isn't transferred at the moment of sale — it's only transferred when the when the house is paid in full. Naturally, this agreement must benefit both parties, which is why negotiations are usually involved. This is where your real estate attorney comes in. She ensures your best interests are taken care of. And, in the future, if the other party violates any of the terms of the agreement, you can be sure you have someone on your side to advocate for you.

Selling real estate on the Big Island of Hawaii can sometimes be tricky. Put a quality lawyer by your side to smooth out the process and protect yourself in the unlikely event anything goes awry.
