Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Real Estate Option Agreement

Washington

Asked on Aug 27, 2025

Can an option agreement for real estate be terminated if the option holder fails to exercise their right within the specified timeframe?

I have entered into a real estate option agreement with a potential buyer, where they have the right to purchase the property within a specified timeframe. However, the option holder has failed to exercise their right within the agreed-upon timeframe. I would like to know if I have the legal grounds to terminate the option agreement and explore other potential buyers for the property.

Merry K.

Answered Sep 2, 2025

Based on what you’ve described, once the option period has expired without the buyer exercising their right to purchase, the option agreement is generally no longer enforceable and you are free to market the property to other buyers. To protect yourself, review the exact language of the option agreement to confirm whether it provides for automatic termination upon expiration, and consider sending the buyer a written notice—ideally by both regular and certified mail—confirming that the option has lapsed and that you are releasing the property for sale to others. Please be advised that I provided this information for educational purposes, and no attorney client relationship has been formed.

Operating Agreement

New York

Asked on Jul 21, 2024

What should be included in an operating agreement for a small business?

I am in the process of starting a small business with a partner and we are looking to draft an operating agreement. We want to ensure that all important aspects of our business are covered in this agreement, such as ownership percentages, decision-making processes, profit distribution, and dispute resolution mechanisms. We are seeking guidance on what specific clauses and provisions should be included in the operating agreement to protect our interests and ensure a smooth operation of the business.

Arthur S.

Answered Aug 7, 2024

LLC Operating Agreements are comprehensive in nature. You have identified several important provisions. Some other provisions that may be considered are capital contribution obligations, Buy/Sell provisions (including Impasse Buy/Sell), financing guarantee obligations, (if any), assignability provisions, tax allocation provisions, SPE provisions, governing law provisions, etc. The list is numerous and much depends on the nature and scope of the business and specific needs of the parties. I have participated in CLE lectures on this subject.

Purchase Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Oct 30, 2023

Are oral purchase agreements valid?

I'm in the process of purchasing a property and the seller and I have verbally agreed to the terms of the purchase. I'm concerned about the validity of the agreement and want to ensure that I am properly protected under the law. I am looking for clarification on whether an oral purchase agreement is legally binding.

Michael C.

Answered Oct 31, 2023

Your question suggests a real estate purchase. Oral contracts for the sale or transfer of land are subject to the statute of frauds in most states. This requires such agreements to be in writing and signed by the parties to be enforceable. Although there are some limited exceptions, I recommend trying to get your verbal agreement memorialized in writing as soon as possible.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

View Trustpilot Review

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
