Feb 2023 Form of the Month – OREF 108 Advisory and Instructions Regarding Real Estate Purchase and Sale Forms

FORM OF THE MONTH

The notion of completing a real estate deal with a handshake may be an appealing dream, but Oregon law requires the transaction to be in writing. Understanding the different form options in the marketplace as well as the pitfalls of mixing different form types in the deal is critical.

Fortunately, OREF Form 108 has got you covered. This advisory summarizes the legal advice, form set options, and allows your client to clearly instruct you on their form preference for their real estate transaction.
