72 hour clause

72 hour clause

This clause is designed to protect the seller from losing valuable marketing time during the real estate negotiation period. If a buyer has a house on the market, the seller will accept that buyer's offer but reserves the right to accept a better offer should one be presented. If this is the case, the seller gives the first buyer 72 hours to commit to the purchase or allow the second offer to prevail.
