Properties are normally listed with real estate brokers once a person decides to sell their home. After that, an offer is made and deposit or down-payment is given. If that offer is accepted, the realtor drafts a contract laying out the obligations of all parties involved. Once a contract has been made, this should be looked over by an attorney. Usually, a review period of about 3 days is given. After changes have been negotiated, or the contract has not been contested, it becomes a binding, legal document.
