FAQ
The easiest way out is to sit down with the real estate brokerage the realtor works for and discuss breaking the agreement. Many reputable brokerages who wish to keep a favorable relationship with your business will agree to peaceful contract termination.
ANSWER: We recommend you use form 350-T. Either form would work, but 350-T only requires the buyer's signature to accomplish the termination, while form 390-T requires signature by both the buyer and the seller to be effective. As its name suggests, form 390-T requires mutual consent of the parties.
