Good to know
Should I take a deposit?+
Yes — a deposit covers your risk, and this agreement records when you must refund it.
Does it include a condition report?+
The clause requires one to be signed at handover, which is what settles most damage disputes.
Is this legal advice?+
No. It's a professionally structured starting point. For high-value or unusual deals, have an attorney review your completed document.
