Land Contract Forms Are Back In Style!


Not many people are able to purchase properties, most especially real estate, in cash. Due to the volatile state of todays economy, even those who live in relatively economically progressive societies find it hard to either let go of a large chunk of hard earned cash or secure a large amount of money. As such, most real estate transactions are not completed in one sitting, but over an extended period of time.

Those who have already established a solid credit standing in banks and other financing institutions will not find it hard to get a mortgage. However, quite a number of potential home owners, particularly young couples or young buyers, are not eligible to take out substantial loans from banks because they have yet to firmly establish their own credit ratings. This, however, does not mean that they have to miss out on having their own property. These buyers can still secure of their own, but instead of getting a mortgage, they can consider getting their property by way of a Contract.

A contract, also known as a Contract for Deed or an Installment Contract, is prepared when the seller or owner of a piece of real estate property allows a potential buyer to remit payment for the property over a specified period of time. This arrangement can be likened to what is commonly known as a bank mortgage, the only difference is that unlike properties purchased through mortgages, the legal responsibilities involved in owning a piece of property (taxes, etc) is retained by the seller, at least until the title is transferred to the new owner.

Like most contracts, the Contract should contain rudimentary information: such as the names and addresses of the parties involved, the description, address and price of the property being sold as well as the purchase price and the agreed upon payment terms. The contract would not be considered legal if this did not hold the signatures of the both the buyer and the seller.

Real Estate Agents and lawyers, traditionally, were the only people capable of preparing Contracts between buyers and sellers; however, much of this has changed today. Nowadays, anyone can easily prepare Contracts as standard sets are readily available from various sources, including the Internet.

Many are quite wary of information from the Internet, as they can not be assured of the quality of the data they will be receiving. However, sources of downloadable forms, especially those that will be used for legal purposes, need to safeguard their credibility, thus the developers of such websites take great pains in ensuring that the information they are sending out are not only correct, but up to date as well. Users are assured that even with the addition of personal modifications in the standard format; the forms are still valid and will be recognized and honored by any court of law.

For those who would want to be sure of the validity of the document they are preparing, the downloadable forms or contracts may be used as draft copies and these can be presented to lawyers or real estate agents for their verification and approval.
