Sale and Purchase Agreements/Contracts
As a real estate investor, when buying and selling a property, in my case in the state of Texas, is it better to utilize the contract that has been promulgated by Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC)? or one drafted by a state licensed attorney?
Basically, I would like to make sure:
1) I do not want to get in trouble/uprotected because some required clause is missing.
2) I do not want to get in trouble/uprotected because there is a clause that does not need to be in the contract/agreement.
I'll appreciate your experienced feedback.
Thank you.
