Option contract (Lexikon) as a precursor to the preliminary agreement

Option Agreement (Definition, Meaning) – As soon as a potential buyer shows interest in a real estate property, he naturally wants to prevent the seller from selling the property elsewhere. When this situation arises, there is the possibility that both parties create an option agreement, which obliges one party to buy or sell the property within an agreed time period. Once the contract expires, the seller can look for another buyer. Until then, the real estate remains reserved.
