What contingencies should I include in my offer?
In Arizona, the standard AAR purchase contract includes a 10 day inspection period that starts the day after contract acceptance. During this time, you can conduct inspections and review the Seller's Property Disclosure Statement. You'll submit a Buyer's Inspection Notice and Seller's Response if you want repairs or credits. Other common contingencies include appraisal, loan approval, and sometimes the sale of your current home. The key is balancing protection with making your offer competitive. Which contingencies to include and how to structure them depends on the property, market conditions, and your situation. Jon can help you decide what makes sense for your offer.
