A right of first refusal is a serious detriment to the value and marketability of property and often leads to litigation. In most situations you should avoid granting rights of first refusal if at all possible.
If someone has first refusal on something that is being sold or offered, they have the right to decide whether or not to buy it or take it before it is offered to anyone else.
Grantee may exercise the Right of First Refusal by delivering to Owner, during the Right of First Refusal term, written notice of the exercise (the “Right of First Refusal Notice”). The Right of First Refusal Notice shall state that the Right of First Refusal is exercised without condition or qualification.
Buyer love letters can put sellers at risk of violating fair housing laws. Sending photos or videos can create additional risk. Listing agents should document all offers received and the seller's objective reason for accepting an offer.
Acceptance is judged objectively, but can either be expressly stated or implied by the offeree's conduct. To form a binding contract, acceptance should be relayed in a manner authorized, requested, or at least reasonably expected by the offeror.
When is a real estate contract binding? “In general, an offer becomes a contract when both parties have signed,” says Phil Lunnon, a Realtor® with Lunnon Realty in Lakewood, CO. Once this happens, the contract is binding for both the seller and buyer.
