Read the PSA's business terms, not its dates

1 · Learn the move · Fact-check list

Your purchase agreement has two documents inside it: a calendar, which is the next lesson, and a business deal, which is this one. The business deal is what you actually bought. On land it carries terms a building contract rarely does: who pays rollback taxes if the parcel leaves a current-use program, whether minerals or timber stay with the seller, what the seller says about leases and pending condemnation, and whether you may walk if the zoning verification does not say what you need. A fact-check list keeps the read honest. Each term, the section that says it, quoted, and a verdict: AGREED, or SILENT if the pasted contract does not speak to it. SILENT is not a gap to fill with what contracts usually say. It is a question for counsel or a redline. And every judgment about whether a term protects you - is this remedy enough, does this representation survive closing - goes to counsel, because a model saying it reads fine is not an opinion.

Fact-check the business terms in the PSA sections I paste. Rows: deposit, termination right, zoning condition, seller representations, as-is, rollback taxes, mineral and timber reservations, leases, assignment, default and remedies. Each row: section quoted, verdict AGREED or SILENT. No market-standard fill. Adequacy questions go to OPEN ITEMS FOR COUNSEL.
