A home inspection contingency is often the most common real estate contingency. The National Association of Realtors® estimates that about 80% of buyers include a home inspection contingency in their contract.

If there is a problem meeting the conditions of the sale, such as the buyer's finance arrangements falling through or they are unhappy with the results of a building inspection and decide to withdraw from the sale, the buyer must let their lawyer or conveyancer know as soon as possible.

We want to help you prepare for the worst-case scenario, which is why we created this straightforward guide to three types of contingencies: Design contingencies. Bidding contingencies. Construction contingencies.

A contingent contract is a legal agreement in which the terms and conditions only apply or take effect if a specific event occurs. Essentially, the parties involved agree to perform actions or obligations based on the occurrence or non-occurrence of a particular event in the future.
