Contracts

Here you can find a sample contract for when you are making offers or have offers accepted. To write a contract, log into your NRT Gateway and select "Online Forms and Contracts"

Click "New" under Transactions and Enter in the Name of your Client. For Transaction Type, click "Purchase" and Property Type click "Residential". Under Apple Template select "Sales Packet - New Jersey" Enter Comments if you'd like and click "Save"

Click "Contract of Sale" and fill out with your transaction information. Use the sample Contract For Sale below as a template for your contract. Simply just enter in the details of the current deal you are pushing through.

When you complete the contract, you want to send it to your clients for e-signature. Go back to your transaction after you finish the contract, and select "e-sign" in the options above the contracts. Click "Create" and select "Contract of Sale" and "Statement of Disclosures - Buyer". (If this is an offer on a property Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage has listed you have to also select the "Dual Agency Consent" Form) Click "Next".

Next, Select the order of the signature participants. You want to select "Selling Agent - Jill Biggs" followed by the Buyer One, and then Buyer Two if necessary.

This will take you into Docusign. Click the arrow at the top left of the page, this will take you back to check the names and e-mails before it sends. Check where it says "Add Documents" to make sure all of the documents are correct.

Where it says "Add Recipients" you want to make sure the first name is Jill Biggs, however, you can send it to your @jillbiggsgroup.com e-mail so you don't have to login to Jill's g-mail account to sign. This may be confusing at first but will make sense after you do a few transactions. Check the other recipients (which should be your clients), and make sure their e-mail is correct as well.

Lastly, where is says "Message To All Recipients" you can enter a subject and text that will appear when the client receives the contract in their Inbox. A Sample could be:

Subject: Contract for Offer on XYX

Message: Hi _______, please click the link to docusign your offer. Thanks!

Go ahead, and click Next at the Top Right.

You're almost done! Review the contracts and disclosures to make sure the signatures are all in the right place, and if they look good, go ahead and click Send! Remember, Jill's signature is going to your inbox first, so you'll have to go into your e-mail and sign on her behalf. This is totally fine, because remember she acts as a broker for all the buyers' agents.

If you are ever unsure of anything, always ask questions and confirm until you have it down!
