Many Vendors may be reluctant reluctant . to accommodate such ' an offer"" 1 If it contains an ESCAPE CLAUSE, however, it should not affect the saleability of your home. This clause permits permits you, the vendor, to CONTINUE MARKETING YOUR HOME, while your purchaser is trying to sell his, rather than removing your home from the market and excluding other prospects. In the event that you receive another more acceptable offer offer (usually, but not necessarily, necessarily, an unconditional one), then, you so notify purchaser number one immediately. If he is unable to remove ALL conditions in his offer within the time allotted in the Escape Clause, usually 24 to 72 hours, then his offer becomes null and void and you're at liberty to accept the second offer. Accepting a conditional offer without an Escape Clause is just one of the common errors made when marketing your-' -home privately.'
