Making Offer - Via Email Ok?

[Matthew G.]

Not sure if this is the right part of the form, but it's kind of a legal question.

I have a PSA that a fellow investor generously provided. I am planning on making offers on several houses I inspected in the past few weeks.

I would prefer to email the offer to the sellers, but is that a good idea? My plan is to fill out the offer with all financial details, inspections periods, contingencies, etc., sign and email it to them.

I just want to make sure this is a good idea, as I would be sending them a contract with my signature on it, but they would not have signed it yet.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

I email offers all the time. I then send contracts by Docusign. Always agree to terms before sending an actual contract over, whether by email, fax, mail or Docusign. People get stuck in minutia with contracts, get the main ingredients agreed to, then they are more likely to sign without changing anything.
