Purchase Terms
Defines total price, deposit/earnest money, any seller credits, financing contingencies, and payment schedule to avoid later disputes.

It reduces ambiguity at closing and helps title companies and lenders verify transfer requirements.
Clear role assignment reduces last-minute delays and helps ensure all signatures, funds, and disclosures are in place for timely recording.
