However, I had 4 BLT contracts not work out (2 taken by ROFR and 2 where sellers kept using points while under contract to sell), and it was lucky number 5 for me. The 5th one was the best match for me overall, and that's the one that went through.

B/c of stories like that, for this last BWV contract -- I had them add a clause into the special provisions of the contract that essentially stated that if any points were unaccounted for, then buyer had the option to cancel and receive deposit back or there would be a discount off the purchase price of $25 per missing point.

wow -- that owner clearly fell asleep at the wheel. Haven't seen too many FULLY loaded contracts in a while.

I had the option to cancel or get $20 back per point per the terms of the contract. I just went ahead and cancelled after the broker said the seller wasn't going to adjust the price. This is certainly not something I wanted to go to court over. There are plenty of other contracts out there.

Interesting -- so the seller essentially refused to sign the final paperwork? that was something I hadn't considered. Is there nothing, absent suing for specific performance, that can be done? I guess I should have added choice of venue into the contract too.

I'd take the $20 off. The seller doesn't have to "adjust the price" if it's already in the contract. Just send the final check, close it, and the seller will receive the reduced amount at the end.

unless they refuse to sign the closing paperwork.

 

[cep101]

Oh my goodness! There seems to be a slow down on contracts submitted the 15th and 16th. Mine was the 16th, and I am still waiting... Getting antsy. The 30th day is Friday for me.

I’m the 16th as well... still waiting.

Also 16th and still waiting.

They were both being super cagey about the whole thing. One of the brokers actually told me they were afraid the sellers wouldn’t sign the closing paperwork. Another seller had adult kids using her points, and she was playing the “I’m oblivious and can’t control my kids” role. It was a mess.

 

[RangerPooh]

Just got word that our second offer was accepted as well.

Nice. It sounds like the broker was a little inexperienced or unsure. But oh well, there's always another contract.
