The Wisconsin Offer to Purchase

I’m not a lawyer but I know lawyers and I know of a Wisconsin Real Estate Lawyer with a blog. James N. Graham is the lawyer, and while I don’t know him I like what he presented on the “As-Is” sales.  Last night I read the  Court of Appeals of Wisconsin Published Opinion James gave a link to. Yup. I read it just before lights out.  If you wonder how a court might interpret failure to disclose provisions of the Offer, you’ll get some insight from Attorney Graham’s work.

The WRA created a fantastic resource for licensees and the public. See the Explanation of  the State of Wisconsin Residential Offer To Purchase.

While I don’t want to discourage you from getting your law degree, staying up on the real estate law can be done by finding legitimate expert lay person’s explanations. These are two worth looking into.

I believe the difference between an accepted or rejected real estate offer to purchase is the drafter's ability to customize the Offer to reflect the Buyer's commitment. Ready, willing, capable, committed, sincere people can out negotiate higher priced offers by moving away from standardized forms. Ask me how.
