FAQ
A Florida real estate lawyer can also draft a real estate contract for you, especially helpful if you are buying or selling in a “for sale by owner” situation without a Realtor involved.
In Florida, a contract is established through a simple but vital process: offer, acceptance, and exchange of value (consideration). This means that a contract comes into existence when one party presents a clear offer, and the other party accepts it, coupled with an exchange of something of value.
7 Essential Elements of A Contract Offer. For there to be a contract, there must first be an offer by one party and an acceptance by the other. Acceptance. Acceptance is the agreement to the specific conditions of an offer. Consideration. Intention to create legal relations. Authority and capacity. Certainty.
A contract is legally binding. It is formed when there is an offer, an acceptance, and, importantly, consideration by both parties. Without consideration, there is no enforceable contract in Florida.
Generally, to be legally valid, most contracts must contain two elements: All parties must agree about an offer made by one party and accepted by the other. Something of value must be exchanged for something else of value.
If you need to obtain a copy of your mortgage agreement, you will need to do so at the office where the mortgage is filed.
You cannot form a valid contract in Florida without consideration. Both parties must give “consideration” for a contract to be formed. If one party does not receive consideration as part of the agreement, only a mere promise has been made. Promises are not enforceable in Florida.
Yes you can write your own contracts. A written contract is only a written record of something that has already been agreed in speech. So to start with write down in simple terms what has been agreed already, that is a good starting point.
The short answer is no. A lawyer is not required to draft a contract for a business or an individual. In fact, anyone can draft a contract. Although this is the case, it's not necessarily the best strategy.
