The use of "riders" to alter and expand the standard forms of real estate contracts and leases (co-ops, condominiums and houses) is becoming more and more prevalent and important in the ever changing residential real estate market. This program will focus on the important provisions which attorneys are including in these riders. Examples of provisions that will be discussed and evaluated include:
"Rent to Own" Agreements
Mortgage Contingencies (loss/expiration of commitments after contingency period)
Sale of Existing Property Contingency
Requirements of Co-op Boards Regarding Maintenance Escrows
Co-op & Condo Riders - Representations regarding Noise, Leaks & Construction
"As-Is" Provisions
Certificate of Occupancy Provisions
Post Closing Possession
This program is a must for all attorneys wanting to gain the knowledge needed to properly
safeguard and advise clients in real estate transactions. This program's updated content will
provide CLE credit to all attendees, even if they attended in the past.
