Purchase Agreement
California
Can a seller back out of a purchase agreement after accepting an offer?
I recently entered into a purchase agreement to buy a house, and the seller accepted my offer. However, just a few days later, the seller informed me that they have changed their mind and no longer want to sell the property. I have already made arrangements for financing and I am concerned about my rights as a buyer. Can the seller legally back out of the purchase agreement after accepting my offer?
Dolan W.
I'm so sorry about this situation! So legally speaking, the answer is no. Under California law, a breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill a legal duty the contract created and causes damages for the plaintiff. (California Civil Jury Instructions Number 303.) The measure of damages is the amount that will compensate the aggrieved party for all the detriment caused thereby or likely to result therefrom. (Cal. Civ. Code § 3300.) You may also seek specific performance of the agreement, too. You have some options you can explore: You can send them a demand for performance or some financial compensation. I have a template letter you can use here - https://www.contractscounsel.com/t/document-form-checkout/119 Otherwise, you can file a lawsuit in your local court. If you’ve already sent a bunch of letters, then the truth is this is the only way to compel them to do anything. Best of luck!

Commercial Building Lease
California
What's CAM charge in a commercial lease?
I am currently negotiating a commercial lease for a property where I plan to operate my business. As part of the negotiation process, the landlord has mentioned the concept of a CAM (Common Area Maintenance) charge, which I am unfamiliar with. I would like to seek the advice of a lawyer to better understand what a CAM charge is, what it covers, and what my responsibilities as a tenant would be in relation to this charge.
Paul S.
CAM charges are for common area maintenance. For example, in an office building, CAM charges are for maintaining the lobby, elevators, corridors, and outside areas (such as the parking lot). If you are looking at renting a space, the landlord should be able to provide you with CAM numbers for that space for the past several years, so you know what to expect.

Commercial Lease
California
What's the property description in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner who is looking to lease a property for my business. I am currently reviewing a commercial lease and am trying to understand what is included in the property description in the lease. I am hoping to gain more clarity on what the property description entails and how it affects my business.
Gagandeep K.
A property description in a commercial lease has to sufficiently identify the extent and boundaries of the property being leased. For example, it can be described by a map reference or by metes and bounds, or include a description such as "that certain building on the south-westerly corner of California and Larkin Streets." The commercial lease will include defined terms such as "Building," "Property," and "Premises". The defined terms define/describe the "Property" on which the "Building" is located which has the "Premises"/"Space" that is being leased. A sample definition of is Property Description in a Commercial Lease: ""Property" means the real property on which the Building is located together with the Building and all appurtenant fixtures and personal property of Landlord used in the operation of the Building and/or the Property, and any other improvements now existing or hereafter constructed thereon[, including the parking lot, walkways, and landscaped ground as depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit [LETTER]]."

Escrow Services Agreement
California
What are the legal obligations and potential risks involved in using escrow services for a real estate transaction?
I am currently in the process of purchasing a property and my real estate agent has recommended using an escrow service to ensure a secure and smooth transaction. However, I have heard conflicting information about the legal obligations and potential risks associated with using escrow services. I want to make sure I fully understand the legal implications and any potential risks involved before proceeding with this option.
Dolan W.
Hello! Welcome to contractscounsel.com. So in your case, using an escrow service in a real estate transaction is super common as it helps facilitate a secure and smooth transfer of property ownership. In an escrow arrangement, a neutral third party holds the funds, documents, and other assets until all terms and conditions of the sale are met, ensuring that neither the buyer nor the seller is at risk of losing money or property if the other party fails to fulfill their obligations. They are basically a middleman. One of the main legal obligations when using escrow is adherence to the terms outlined in the escrow agreement. Both parties must comply with the instructions provided in the contract, including deadlines for deposits, inspections, and disclosures. The escrow company is legally bound to act according to the instructions from the buyer and seller and can only release funds or documents when all conditions are met. If a dispute arises, the escrow company may require mutual agreement or a court order before taking any action, which could delay the process.

Potential risks of using escrow services include issues related to the service provider's reliability and the risk of fraud. It's important to choose a reputable and licensed escrow company to minimize risks. In some cases, fraudulent companies may present themselves as escrow services, taking advantage of unsuspecting buyers or sellers. I would verify with others in the field or even friends and family, in addition to doing your own research online to sniff out any scams. Best of luck! Dolan
