Real Estate Purchase Counter-Offer Form

A real estate purchase counter-offer is a written response made by either a buyer or seller when negotiating a real estate transaction. It is common to give the other party 48 to 72 hours to agree to the terms stated in the counter-offer. If the other party doesn't agree or respond, the agreement and all prior offers become void and non-binding.
