"time of essance" in a contract
Did anyone have this in their contracts and did not have a problem getting it taken out???
if the 'time of essence" is still in the contract and you dont close by a certain day, they can keep your money.....

Re: "time of essance" in a contract
well like a mortgage contingency protects the buyers, time of the essence is looking out for the sellers. it basically gives you 30 days from the date on the contract to actually close. i think thats more than fair and if you're not comfortable and think you need more time then just ask them to change the estimated close date on the contracts.

Re: "time of essance" in a contract
When we purchased our home we had our lawyer put in a time of the essence clause into the contract. We, the buyer, wanted it to make sure we were in the home by a certain date. Of course we did not have another home to sell and we had a mortgage guarantee.
