There's nothing mystical about investing, but then there's nothing easy, either. If was easy we'd all be rich and have bad hair (think The Donald) Thanks, Heath.

Realtors and even Attorneys prefer to use a standard contract )Provided by the Bar or the Realty Association) because it is easy, somewhat fair, and everybody knows the terms, which may include the local trade practices, but any term can be negotiated. Realtors will shy away from term changes because they have only limited allowance to change contract terms, and want to keep the deal alive. Your attorney can put whatever terms you want in your offer. You will only get what you settle for! It is worth mentioning that there is nothing “standard” about a contract.
