What is an "option to purchase" agreement? An option to purchase is an agreement that gives a potential buyer (optionee) the right, but not the obligation, to buy property in the future. The optionee must decide by a certain time whether to exercise the option and thereafter by bound under the contract to purchase.
An option-to-purchase contract must conspicuously state the duration of the option period. There is no correct or preferred unit of time and option periods can range from months to years. Typically, however, in the residential context, option periods range from one-to-five years.
What are two examples? A common example of how option contracts work in real estate is in development. If a developer wants to purchase a $3 million building, but can't secure funding for up to one year, then a real estate option contract may allow the developer to obtain exclusivity rights.
