Input on Short Sale Forms Wanted by August 14
July 14, 2008
In May, the Standard Forms Committee established a subcommittee whose principal task was to work on creating a draft form for use in short sales transactions. The subcommittee spent many hours thoroughly considering a number of other short sales forms before presenting a draft to the full committee. The result is the creation of the Short Sale Addendum to Purchase Contract and the Short Sale Addendum to Listing Contract.
Over the next month, REALTORS® will have the opportunity to read the draft forms and submit comments, which will be helpful to the committee in finalizing the forms. The final draft will be presented to the Executive Committee for approval in September.
Click here to submit your feedback. The deadline to respond is Thursday, August 14, 2008.
