If you are a consumer (a home buyer or a home seller, or just a real estate watcher) you may not be familiar with all of the terms involved in real estate transactions.   Realtors® know the terminology, but wouldn't it be great to have that information as a consumer?  A "Real Estate Terminology Dictionary" of sorts.

Look no further, here is the next installment of the Real Estate Glossary!

Hi Melissa,

Thank you for the rest of the glossary. Just for your information, I think that a person who cannot write is allowed to place an X to execute a contract. But maybe check with a lawyer first!! LOL

Steve - I think that's also for cartoon characters and movie characters!  :0)  I always wondered if that really was the way they did it before everyone was educated.  LOL
