IT8 THE LAW
The signing of a contrast of
sale is an extremely important
step In the purclia.se of a home
Once buyer and seller they are
bound by the provisions of the
contract Their respective legal
rights in the transaction are
thereby set and determined. If
the contract is poorly and hap-
hazardly drawn, a harvest of re- !
gret may be reaped at a later date
Sales contracts are olten called
by other names, such as earnest
money contracts, binders, receipts. !
etc A.1I of them are for the same
porpoise and almost without ex- j
ception involve the deposit of'
money by the buyer. Some require
the seller to put up a good faith
deposit. The fact that such de-
posited sums are usually to be
forfeited In event the depositor
later falls to go through with his
specified contractual obligations
lends additional weight to the
often stated admonition that no
contract should be signed without
complete understanding as to Its
terms..
But many home purchasers
(and sellers) rush to sign a hastily
prepared contract with very little
knowledge of Its contents. The
pressure of time, the Informality
of the occasion, the casual ap-
pearance of the contract, and per-
haps the fact that a particular
printed form is used may con-
tribute In causing the true Im-
portance of the act to be over-
looked. At any rate, many are
lulled Into a lapse of good business
Judgement.
Every significant detail of the
bargain should be crystallized In
unmlstakeable terms In the con-
tract or sale.. Land and fixtures
being sold should be clearly des-
cribed. A complete description of
the property by lot and block, or
by metes and bounds, is a must,
the street number being Inad-
equate by itself.
Articles and fixtures Included
in the sale but not always sold
with the houses generally should
be specifically lifted. Included in
this category are such items as '
Venetian blinds, removable floor I
coverings, draperies, air condition- ;
Ing units and others In pure has- i
lng property under construction.'
complete plans and specifications '
form an essential part of the
agreement.
The price to be paid must, of ,
course, be specified, along with I
method and terms of payment If j
a certain sized loan is a prere- |
quislte to the buyers ability to;
complete the purchase, this fact 1
should be noted Sad Indeed la the I
prospective purchaser who loses 1
his earnest money when a content- |
plated loan transaction falls
through, his contrast requiring;
payment of the entire consider- I
ation in cash.
The sales contract should also j
state the quality of the title to be
conveyed to the buyer and the*
type of title evidence to be fum-'
tshed .
The buyers Individual clrcum-1
stances and desires may require
that various matters not mention-
ed above be provided for In the1
contract. All too often people try |
to squeeze a sales contract to fit
the type of printed form on handr I
omitting or leaving to easily mis-1
construed or forgotten oral ag^ee- |
ment many vital provisions. Do
printed form.” Too many un—

fortunate entanglement# hav*

yers with the words. “I have Jus*
