contracts: The One That Got Away ~ A Lesson Learned - 12/13/11 01:50 PM
A few months ago I had a buyer looking at homes in a 55+ community named Solivita in Kissimmee, FL. Solivita is a top notch community and there is some pretty stiff competition when trying to get an offer accepted. We saw quite a few homes and made a few offers that were not accepted. Well, we finally found “the one” and made an offer that was pretty generous. The buyers needed financing so their offer was not as competitive as it could have been and they knew that going in.

contracts: One More Thing To Watch Out For When Buying A Foreclosure - 09/07/11 10:56 AM
There are plenty of things that buyers need to be careful of when they are buying a Davenport, Florida foreclosure. But let me just add one more item to the list. An offer is an offer and a contract is a contract. They are not the same thing. An accepted offer becomes an executed contract when both parties have signed all contracts and addenda; and delivery has been made to all parties.
