A Kentucky residential purchase and sale agreement is a legal document that binds a seller and a buyer to the terms regarding the transfer of real estate. The agreement will relay the nature of the piece of property transferring ownership, the amount of money to be paid to the seller, the manner in which the buyer will produce the compensation, and all other details which clarify the rights and responsibilities of both parties.
It is required that, before an agreement is signed and a price is discussed, the potential buyer receives a disclosure of the property condition that includes details of any material issues or defects known to the seller.
