When Buying from the seller directly what forms do I need?
Hello,
I want to know the exact process (in terms of what paperwork needs to be filled out) for buying a property directly from the seller.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Angelo

If you don't even know what paperwork is required, you might not be ready to buy direct off-market. Who helped you with the valuation and how do you know you are getting a good deal? Is the seller open to inspections and how are you financing the deal? An off-market contract can be as little as one page but should be around four pages to make sure you protect yourself and the deal.
