[WSBARP] Document from Escrow Officer

[Marc Holmes]

That doesn’t surprise me at all.  Most of the escrow instructions I’ve
seen also have a provision to the effect that the terms therein do not
supersede the purchase and sale agreement.  Have you had any luck
countering that argument on this basis?

 

In any case, I have never had any problem getting escrow companies to
relent on verbiage like this when I object to it during the course of the
transaction, i.e., before closing.  They may cuss and moan a bit but then
I say no problem, we’ll just change escrow company and I’ll keep this in
mind for all future transactions.

Third, I’ve seen this raised as a shield in any and all post-closing
complaints by buyer – including misrepresentation and fraud cases.

Listmates:

 

My client, a seller of property, has been presented a document to sign,
pre-closing, which states:

 

All terms, conditions and contingencies of the Purchase and Sale Agreement
have been met to our satisfaction.  Closing was completed per the
Agreement.

 

Ever seen that before?

 

If so, what say you?

 

I think no, no and no.  First, offered pre-closing.  Second, beyond the
terms of the PSA.  Third, what?!

 

All thoughts appreciated.
