FAQ

Question: The general formula for an escalator clause adjustment is: new = original × (original year index / current year index).

Escalation Clauses: what has been your experience the last year? For example with a house going for $300K, you may add an escalation clause to your $325K offer saying you'll offer $10K more than any other higher offer up to a max of $355K.

Including an escalation clause may put you at risk for paying more than what the property was appraised for. Just because someone else is making a higher offer doesn't necessarily mean the home is worth that amount.

However, buyers need to be careful with these clauses as they can sometimes backfire. “An escalation clause needs to be in conjunction with a really good offer,” said Madani of Room Real Estate. “It's really the whole package to get your offer accepted.”

To add, yes, escalation clauses are highly advisable. I use them for almost every single house my buyer is going to write an offer on and we know for certain there will be other offers. The escalation clause in itself is very favorable to buyers and protects them in more ways than one.

Yes. Given that the enforceability of such a contract is not 100% assured, and given the potential pitfalls as discussed in the previous questions, the buyer should be advised to speak with their own legal counsel prior to making such an offer.

Escalation clauses in my area are very common and have been quite successful, but $1000 is pretty much the standard.

Make an offer to the seller that includes the escalation clause addendum, spelling out the original offer, with the escalation document attached. The seller will provide evidence of potential competing offers. The buyer will receive the courtesy call and may increase their offer using the escalation clause.

When you include an escalation clause in your offer, you're telling the seller your highest possible offer right out of the gate. This can limit your negotiating power. Additionally, some sellers won't accept offers that include escalation clauses. So you may be limited in the homes you can make these types of bids on.

More info

An escalation clause, or escalation addendum, is a real estate document that outlines a buyer's willingness to raise their initial purchase price offer. An escalation clause is "whatever the highest offer is I'll pay you more." It presumes that price is literally the only thing that matters. An escalation clause is a real estate contract, sometimes called an escalator, that lets a home buyer say: "I will pay X price for this home. An escalation clause is an addendum to an offer on a property, stating a buyer's willingness to increase their bid if the seller receives a competing offer. An escalation clause states a buyer is willing to raise their offer if a seller receives a higher offer. The Escalation Addendum is designed to automatically increase a buyer's offer to outbid competing offers, up to a specified maximum price. An escalation clause is essentially a clause that you add to the contract either to your original contract or to a potential counter offer. Escalation Clause: This secret weapon allows your offer to automatically outbid others up to a cap you're comfortable with. Information and must be filled out and submitted with the bid.
