Of course, it is highly recommended that when you're done with your edits, have a qualified attorney look it over and make sure it will fly (legally) in your state.
Some "out" clauses include:
-satisfactory (to you) home inspection
- subject to partner's approval within x days
- subject to clear title
Also make sure there's an assignability clause in their in case you want to pass on the contract to another investor.

I met with an attorney today. This was his response that I should use the standard real estate form from the board of realtors. He said that way everyone has usually seen on of them. I just wanted to use a form that would be legal in North Carolina to sell a house by owner.
Thanks for the info. Right now I am looking at a Bank REO and going to try to put everything I can think of to start. The comps in the area are for 115,000. The have it listed for 94,000. I am thinking about offering them somewhere in the 50's because it looks to me about 15k in repairs will be needed. It has also been on the market for a several months.
What you are talking about is a short sale; you are asking the lender to possibly take a large financial hit.
You simply can not go into a lenders office and ask them to knock of tens of thousands of dollars and expect them to say ok.
Doing a short sale will be dependant upon the type of loan and the amount the lender had to take back.
My first question to you would be what does the lender have invested in the subject property?
2nd of all what type of loan is it? was it government backed?
How do you plan to sell the discount to the realtor, it's listed with a realtor, if the listing agent is not sold on the benefits of the discount how will they sell it to the customer?
I am not trying to kick you around, you must approach this in a professional intelligent manner and show the lender how much they are loosing and then show them how much profit they will make by accepting your discounted offer.
I have been a part of 100's of short sales over the years and through this process I have learned you simply can not ask a lender to take a $44,000 hit in your case without justification.
On the other side of the fence if you plan to sell the property how do you plan to convince a lender that you purchased the property for say $50,000 put in $15,000 and this $15,000 increased the value by $65,000.
Keep in mind that when doing a short sale your credibility is on line and if you are unsuccessful in your presentation you will loose credibility with the listing agent and most importantly the lender in other words you will be a joke to them.
As an investor creditability is more important than your ability to pay cash.

I see NOTHING that indicates the OP is talking about a SS. He stated this is an REO. He as the buyer can offer ANY amount he likes to the bank--that doesn't mean the bank will accept it though. The fact that he wants to offer so much less than the listing price does not mean that he's looking for an SS.[ Edited by doni49 on Date 06/09/2004 ]
That is correct. If I am going to offer a lot less than the REO is listed for should I submit a list of repairs need to bring it up todate? What are some other ideas to get a bank to lower their asking price?
Ok boys lets get down to the chase, doni49 the fact remains the offer price is less than the lender has invested in the subject property and this is determined by the lenders asking price. "It's just investor common sense" and based upon my experience in dealing with REO's.
InvestorNC Normally lenders are only seeking to cover the cost to sale the subject REO.
The asking price is $94,000 - How much does the lender have invested in the subject property will determine the method of offer presentation.

If you are trying to submit an offer to a bank, for an REO, that is knee deep in clever "get out of jail free clauses", save the paper; the bank is NOT going to accept it.
The bank wants to see the generic RE contact PLUS all of their specific paperwork.
For the most part, the bank will not budge off the price for several weeks to several months. If you bring all cash and a fast close, you can get them to move faster.
Here are some clauses you might use. You can pick and choose which ones you want if any.
Good Luck.

Thanks for the info. I am meeting with my attorney next week. Does anyone else has other clauses that I should ask about?
I met with an attorney today. This was his response that I should use the standard real estate form from the board of realtors. He said that way everyone has usually seen on of them. I just wanted to use a form that would be legal in North Carolina to sell a house by owner.
Any suggestions?
i'd use the realtors form. On most agreements there is the "other provisions" section where you can add just about anything under the sun you want to.
put in an assignability clause, that you can transfer the contract if you want.
Assignment clauses are dependent upon the type of mortgage the subject property is under.
Example:
Government REO's normally will not allow any type of assignment clauses as well as many lenders in today's market.
Therefore you will have to deed over to another investor upon sale of your rights for example.
If assignments or consignees are allowed I always used subject to partners approval and inspection as and example
Thanks for the info. Right now I am looking at a Bank REO and going to try to put everything I can think of to start. The comps in the area are for 115,000. The have it listed for 94,000. I am thinking about offering them somewhere in the 50's because it looks to me about 15k in repairs will be needed. It has also been on the market for a several months.
