Offers
How do you write an offer?
You make an offer as a buyer by completing and signing a purchase agreement. The purchase agreement is a standard fill-in-the-blank template that your agent will customize to fit the terms of the offer you tell them you want to make. Almost all documents are signed via e-signature in CA real estate.
How is an offer submitted?
An offer is typically submitted by your agent to the listing agent via email. The email will include your pre approval letter, any additional documents pertaining to your offer and sometimes a personal that you, the buyer, decide to write to the seller.
If the offer is a form, how can we customize it?
The offer has certain blanks for contract details. In addition to adding the price, we also can change the contingencies you wish to keep or waive, the length of those contingencies, the split of closing costs between the parties, and other situational terms.
When do you know if the seller chooses my offer?
The standard expiration date on an offer is 3 days - we can reduce that for you if you want. There are usually counter offers involved; however, the seller will e-sign the offer that we submitted and send it back. At that point, we are “in contract” and ready to open escrow!
