FAQ

There are essentially four types of real estate contracts: purchase agreement contracts, contracts for deed, lease agreements, and power of attorney contracts. They each have different uses and stipulations.

Required Elements of a Real Estate Contract To establish legality, a real estate contract must include a legal purpose, legally competent parties, agreement by offer and acceptance, consideration, and consent.

If you fall behind on payments, the contract can be terminated and you will lose whatever equity was previously built. Furthermore, if the seller has a mortgage and defaults on their payments, you may lose the property even though your own payments to the seller are current.

The right to timely and complete monetary payments for all products and services; The right to exclusive ownership and use of a product, label, or material; The right to resell or transfer ownership rights (although this right may vary with each agreement based on the specific circumstances); and.

The contract for deed is a much faster and less costly transaction to execute than a traditional, purchase-money mortgage. In a typical contract for deed, there are no origination fees, formal applications, or high closing and settlement costs.

In practice, there is little difference in meaning between an Offer to Purchase and a Sale Agreement; you may even hear it referred to as a Deed of Sale.

If your name is on the deed but not on the mortgage, your position is actually advantageous. The names on the deed of a house, not the mortgage, indicate ownership. It's the deed that passes real estate ownership from one entity to another.

A Deed of Sale is a contract where the seller delivers property to the buyer and the buyer pays the purchase price. The Deed of Sale results in ownership over the property being transferred to the buyer upon its delivery.

Offer, acceptance, awareness, consideration, and capacity are the five elements of an enforceable contract.

A contract has six important elements so that it will be valid which is offer, acceptance, consideration, intention to create legal relation, certainty and capacity. If the main elements are not in contract, it would be an invalid contract.

HISTORY: Code 1932, § 8041; Acts 1933, ch. 96, § 1; C. Supp. 1950, § 8041; T.C.A. (orig. ed.), § 64-1003.

TENNESSEE CASE LAW 
 
Contracts to give a deed upon completion of payment of the purchase price are recognized in Tennessee. Their recordation is expressly authorized pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 66-24-101. Parties may stipulate in a contract for the sale of land that title shall be withheld until the performance of a further consideration. Price v. Taylor, 1984 Tenn.App.LEXIS 2879 (1984) 
 
The equitable equivalent of a vendor’s lien is retained by the vendor for the balance of the purchase price in a contract for deed where possession is given to the vendee. An equitable lien is held by the vendor in the vendee’s equitable title in contracts as now under consideration. In cases where there is default in the payment of the purchase price by the vendee in a contract for deed, the vendor may seek possession of the property and damages through the Chancery Court because of the breach of the executory contract. If the vendor is unable to deliver title or if the contract was obtained through fraud, the vendee may seek rescission and damages. The “right of foreclosure” and the waiver of equity of redemption are matters that inure to the benefit of the vendor and their express absence in the contract constitutes no grounds for complaint by the vendee to void a contract. Price v. Taylor, 1984 Tenn.App.LEXIS 2879 (1984)
