Agreement To Sell Real Estate
Pennsylvania
Acceptance of residential Real Estate Offer in Pennsylvania
Selling Agent told our Buyers Agent (i am buyer) that there was another buyer, that they would do highest & best / Best and Final offers by Sat NOON time. We provided our best and final offer by Sat at NOON. Sunday approx. 3PM the sellers agent told our buyers agent that the sellers have selected your buyers offer, it was due to removing the inspection contingency and being within 5K of the other bidder, we were very excited. We do not have a conter-signed PA real estate contract, we have an email note from the seller's agent representing the seller to our buyers agent indicating the the seller has accepted your buyers offer. My Question: the acceptance was in writing (email) and signed by sender of email - Sellers agent, specifically indicating they accepted our offer which was signed and in writing. Subsequently the sellers agent indicated when they did not sign our offer, that since they had not signed and had not signed the specific contract, that they were accepting a 2nd offer at a higher price. Any hope of wining based on the acceptance of our offer was first, it was in writing (email) and signed by sellers agent?
Angela H.
The agent’s email will not be enough. You will need the agreement signed by the sellers, as they are the contracting party.

Commercial Lease
Texas
Should I use a lawyer for commercial lease?
It is a very long lease and I'm not sure what it says. I also don't want to pay a fortune to have it reviewed to eat into my budget.
George O.
Yes! Before signing any contract/agreement/lease, or anything that appears to be a binding agreement, it is worth the money to have a lawyer review it. I charge a flat fee to review any and all agreements, so my clients know up front what they are paying, and they consider it a cost of doing business. The alternative, i.e. not having a lawyer review your agreements prior to signing, can be, and usually is, exponentially more expensive should a conflict arise (and they often do).

Real Estate Contract
Illinois
what is better to buy land or rent for construction in US?
we are a construction company from Ukraine, we are planning to build a cottage town in the USA
T. Phillip B.
I suppose it doesn't matter if you have the lease giving you permission and the lease is long enough to justify the building expense when you won't own it. But I'd buy the land so you could eventually sell the property with the building on it.

HVAC Contract
New York
Can I terminate an HVAC contract if the contractor fails to complete the agreed-upon work within the specified timeframe?
I hired a contractor to install a new HVAC system in my home, and we signed a contract that stated the work would be completed within four weeks. However, it has been three months, and the contractor has not finished the installation. Despite numerous promises and excuses, there has been no progress made, and I am growing increasingly frustrated. Can I terminate this HVAC contract due to the contractor's failure to meet the agreed-upon timeframe?
Arthur S.
Simple answer...yes. The failure of the contractor to timely complete performance through no fault of the homeowner can be the basis for termination of the contract. Of course, the terms of the contract will control on this subject. It is customary for contracts to require that a written notice be provided by the homeowner to the contractor setting forth, in reasonable detail, the nature and scope of the default by the contractor and requiring that the default be cured within a state time period following delivery of the notice...failing which, the homeowner will be entitled to terminate the contract and, in certain instances, seek recovery of damages by reason of such default..

Can you confirm whether or not it is legal for me to utilize an option to purchase contract with a seller/wholesaler with the intention to sell and assign the contract (with the seller knowing this intention) rather than the intention to close on it myself? How much would you charge to confirm the legality of the following contract in both PA and NY and make the appropriate changes if needed?
