TITLE CONTINGENCY Clause Samples

A Title Contingency clause allows a party to withdraw from a contract or renegotiate terms if issues with the property's title are discovered during the due diligence period. Typically, this clause applies to real estate transactions, where the buyer may uncover liens, encumbrances, or other defects in the title that could affect ownership rights. Its core function is to protect buyers from inheriting unresolved title problems, ensuring they are not obligated to proceed with a purchase unless the title is clear and marketable.

TITLE CONTINGENCY. Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Property is subject to its obtaining within fifteen (15) days after the Effective Date a commitment for an Owner's Title Insurance Policy (the "Title Commitment"), dated not earlier than the Effective Date of this Agreement, issued by the Title Company, together with such copies of all items and documents referred to in the Title Commitment. The Title Commitment will commit the Title Company to issue the Owner's Title Policy to Purchaser at the Closing in the amount of the Purchase Price. Purchaser shall use its best efforts to obtain the Title Commitment. Purchaser shall deliver a copy of the Title Commitment to Seller immediately upon Purchaser's receipt thereof. Purchaser shall have until five (5) days after its receipt thereof to state any objections in writing. This contingency shall be deemed satisfied or waived if such written notice of objection is not provided by Purchaser on or before the expiration of such five-day period. Such written notice of objection shall state all of Purchaser's objections with specificity. Upon receipt of such notice, Seller may, but shall not be obligated to, cure such objection. If Seller cures such objections within 15 days, or, if such objections are such that they cannot be cured within 15 days and Seller has commenced curing such objections and thereafter diligently proceeds to perfect such cure, then this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the Closing Date shall be adjusted accordingly. If Seller is unable or chooses not to cure such objections within the time permitted, then this Agreement shall terminate, and Seller shall instruct the Escrow Agent to return the Initial Deposit to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Covenants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Purchaser may waive such objections that Seller is unable or chooses not to cure within 10 days after receipt of a notice that Seller is unable or chooses not to cure such objections, and upon receipt by Seller of such waiver in full from Purchaser, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect with no reduction in the Purchase Price. If requested by Seller, Purchaser will confirm in writing whether this title contingency has been satisfied and, if so, the date on which it was satisfied. Seller assumes no obligations to Purchaser with respect to matters disclosed as title exceptions in the Title Commitment. Purchaser shall pr...
