The Real Estate Option Contract Download & Guide

Alright, disclaimer time. I know that might be a creepy thing to hear, but I’ve got to get this out of the way.

So here’s the disclaimer:

I take no responsibility for the outcome you may experience by using my contracts or otherwise concerning any of the content within my Real Estate courses.

That’s it. I hate that I have to say that, because it kinda feels like it undermines my credibility, but it’s one of those things that I just have to mention.

While none of my contracts has ever given me a hint of legal trouble over the years, I simply can’t make any specific promises that you’ll have the same experience. No contract can guarantee with absolute certainty that you’ll stay out of hot water. Ultimately it’s up to you to conduct yourself in a professional manner and not make moves that will put you at risk. I think what it really comes down to is that if you take good care of the people you’re working with and operate with integrity then things will generally be just fine.

With that said, my contracts do provide the user with a substantial level of legal protection. They’re purposefully designed to give you the horsepower to control deals, get offers accepted, and generally be able to successfully maneuver deals to the closing table - while simultaneously giving the user the ability to get out of deals if that turns out to be the best course of action.

So while I can’t make any specific promises concerning my contracts, what I can tell you is that I’m extraordinarily pleased with how well they’ve served me over the years and I just can’t see why you wouldn’t experience the same level of success by using them for yourself.

I’ll close this lesson by giving you some valuable advice.

Always have any contracts you intend to use approved first by your attorney or title company before putting them to use. They may simply approve them just the way they are or perhaps they'll suggest some edits. Either way it’s a good idea to follow their advice because they are very in tune with the nuances of your investment market.

So that’s it, that’s the disclaimer. With that out of the way, let’s get into the meat and potatoes of this course and let’s dive into the XXXXXXXXX.

In this section, we’ll be going through the contract line by line with simple explanations so that you come out of this section with a good grasp of how the contract works so that you can effectively put it to use in your business.

Buckle up, pay close attention, and let’s dive into the details of the Option Contract.

In this lesson, we’ll go through the contract files that are downloadable as part of this course. There is a PDF file and also an ODT file.

The PDF is the one that I call the “working copy”. It’s the one you’ll use to print, email, or otherwise use to get business done.

The ODT file is the one that you can personalize, edit, export, and modify. It’s the one you can use to make any changes you need in order to make the document your own.

Remember, your downloads are available in the final lesson of this course.

Another important thing to remember is that I am using a Macbook Pro computer running Open Office during these videos. If you’re on a different machine, your screen is going to look different, but the general functionality should be very similar.

The option contract is one that I would call a “special uses contract”. It’s not one that you’ll typically be using very often, however it can be especially powerful when used at the right time.

Being that it’s primary purpose is to lock in a specific price point on a piece of property while not obligating you to the purchase in any way - it often comes down to using it when long-term market moves are being considered.

For example, imagine a situation where you are anticipating that the values in a particular market or neighborhood will climb in the near future… but you’re not confident enough to make a move just yet. In this case, you could put an option contract on a piece of property at a price that you think will work IF the market does move in the direction you’re predicting. Then you just sit back and wait. If the market moves the way you’re anticipating, which opens up your profit potential for the deal, now you can exercise your option contract, put the property under contract with a purchase and sale agreement, and move forward with the deal. I hope that helps illustrate the power and best uses of the option contract.

As you can see, it’s a very useful tool to have, but it’s most often used when longer term investment horizons are at play.

The Option Contract has helped me make money in over 300 Real Estate deals thus far. It’s been a very handy contract to have, and I know you’ll get a ton of value putting it to work in your own business.

From here there’s only 1 more lesson left, but it’s one that you definitely don’t want to miss.
