I have signed the contract on potential PPOR yesterday (friday) at 5 pm. My initial offer was countered with a $10k increase - I went back with a $5k increase, that's when the agent requested I sign. She never said that amount was acceptable, in fact at one stage she said 'if you do end up getting this....' I understand it's not a done deal until vendor has signed but I feel that my contract is, or is going to be used as leverage against other possible interested parties, there are opens advertised for today and tomorrow.
Property was passed in at auction three weeks ago. They want 90 day settlement, they've bought elsewhere.
Lots of good info here about putting a sunset clause on offers etc but what about a signed contract? Agent did say that because of vendor's occupation he might be hard to meet with until this morning (though I doubt this). I know everyone's situation is different, but I'd think it was unreasonable if they sit on a contract for more than 24hrs. Thoughts?
Thanks!
