FAQ
Under contract law, assignment of a contract is both: (1) an assignment of rights; and (2) a delegation of duties, in the absence of evidence otherwise. For example, if A contracts with B to teach B guitar for $50, A can assign this contract to C.
When an assignment of contract happens, the original party is relieved of their contractual duties, and their role is replaced by the approved incoming party.
Neither party shall assign the contract as a whole without written consent of the other. If either party attempts to make such an assignment without such consent, that party shall nonetheless remain legally responsible for all obligations under the contract.
In its basic form, a consent to assignment of the contract is just that: A contractor consents to assignment of the contract to the lender in the event of owner default.
Assignment is the transfer of a right or an interest vested in one party (the 'assignor') to another party (the 'assignee'). A valid assignment will entitle the assignee to demand performance of a contractual obligation.
Assignment contracts are a vehicle used by real estate investors to transfer one party's rights and obligations under an existing real estate contract to another party. Assignment contracts don't involve transferring or selling the property directly like a purchase agreement.
