The good thing about real estate sales agreements is that there are no standardized formats that one has to follow. Each real estate agency create its own agreement format, provided that it conforms to state rules and regulations. The purpose of a drawing up an agreement of this sort is to settle the terms between both parties (buyer and seller) and lay down the conditions that both have to abide by.

Most property sales agreements are charted out by a real estate agent, but the buyer or the seller may choose to do it amongst themselves too. However, it is best to let an agent take care of the details as he will probably know more there is to know about agreements of such sort. A real estate sales agreement can be detailed or not so much, depending on the situation of the sale or purchase. The terms and conditions of the property, how much money will be paid and over what period of time, and possession details are some of the main issues that real estate sales agreements highlight. Any loans or litigations that the property may be under, will need to be handled by the seller and the details of such circumstances will need to be charted out in the agreement.
