Philippine Legal Forms: Contract To Sell

 

A Contract to Sell refers to an agreement between a seller and a buyer. The contract shows that the seller promises to sell something to the buyer and the buyer also promises the seller the buy the property. However, the contract does not instantly transfer the right to the buyer even when this contract is signed. There are still conditions that have to be fulfilled by one or both parties before transfer of ownership can take place. The Deed of Absolute sale will only be executed once the conditions stated in the Contract to Sell have been met.
