Connecticut Residential Purchase Agreement

A Connecticut residential purchase agreement is a written contract between a seller and a buyer of a residential property. The agreement outlines all the terms and conditions of the sale, including the price, closing date, and more. Once both parties sign the document, the contract becomes legally binding and cannot be terminated unless both parties agree.
