FAQ
Sellers are allowed to accept backup offers even if they are under contract. However, if you accept a backup offer while under contract, it must be contingent upon the failure of the original contract. You must accept the first contract and forego the backup offer if the buyer meets all conditions.
The total length of the Due Diligence time period differs from thirty, sixty, or ninety days, although it can be longer or shorter if necessary and agreed upon.
Here is an example clause: Due Diligence Period Clause: “The Buyer shall have a period of number of days days, starting from the Effective Date, to conduct a thorough due diligence review of the Property.
Also known as a due diligence out, this is a closing condition that permits the buyer not to close an acquisition if it is not satisfied with the results of its due diligence investigation of the target company or business.
In a typical contract, the seller cannot just back out, but they can reject your inspection repair or credit request.
In the U.S., most states allow residential property buyers to conduct due diligence for up to two weeks. Commercial property buyers may have up to two months, partly because of a more complicated background check.
Generally, due diligence can take between four and six weeks if you're buying or selling a business. This will vary depending on the business issue you are addressing, where in the deal process your due diligence is taking place and how large or complex your transaction is.
For instance, the average small business due diligence period is roughly 45 to 60 days. Of course, a larger, more complex deal could easily take longer. For example, due diligence for a private equity group or strategic buyer of a similarly sized business usually last 60 to 180 days.

When to conduct due diligence? Due diligence should be conducted as early as possible in the M&A process.
