Most home buyers skim the contract fine print and cross their fingers. But buried in all that legal language are clauses that can make or break your deal.
This episode unpacks the contingencies written into purchase agreements - what they actually do, how they work in practice, and why they matter more than most people realize.
What We Cover:
- The standard contingencies in most contracts and their real-world impact
- Stories from deals that fell apart and deals that were saved
- How inspection, financing, and appraisal clauses actually function
- What happens when contingencies expire or get waived
For:Anyone buying or selling property who wants to understand what they're actually signing.
The Reality:These aren't just legal formalities. They're the difference between a smooth transaction and a financial disaster. Understanding how they work changes how you approach every real estate deal.
After listening, you'll know what those contract clauses actually mean and why they exist in the first place.
