The contract includes all the transactional terms, such as the stipulated purchase price and any financial contingencies the parties wish to add. Additionally, it contains the land’s legal description as it appears on the deed. Upon reaching mutual terms for the sale, both parties shall sign the contract and schedule a date for closing.
