Welcome to Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio. I’m Cleve Gaddis—here to make real estate clear, simple, and worry-free.
In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most important documents in any real estate transaction: the Georgia Association of REALTORS® (GAR) Standard Purchase & Sale Agreement.
If you’re buying or selling a home in Georgia, this contract governs almost every aspect of your deal—from the offer to closing—and understanding it is crucial. We’ll cover:
What the GAR Purchase & Sale Agreement is and why it’s used in nearly all Georgia real estate transactions.
Who writes and updates the document each year.
Whether the contract favors the buyer, the seller, or remains neutral.
Why both parties should take time to read and understand it before signing.
How the purchase price, financing, and payment terms are structured.
What “earnest money” means, how much is typical, and what happens if it’s not delivered on time.
Plus, I’ll share details on our Upside program, which gives you all the options to make your next real estate move with confidence.
