Can the contract be assigned?

Assignment is one of the most misunderstood — and most hidden — parts of a cash sale. Here's the plain-English version.

What “assignment” means

Assigning a contract means the buyer transfers their right to purchase your home to a different buyer before closing. It's a normal, legal practice — but it becomes a problem when it's hidden, because you may end up with a different, unknown party actually buying your home.

Our commitment

We disclose assignment rights in writing as part of the offer. If a contract can be assigned, we tell you, we explain what it means for your certainty of closing, and we keep you informed about who is ultimately responsible for performing.

Questions worth asking any buyer

Do you intend to take title yourself, or assign the contract?
If assigned, who becomes responsible for closing?
How does assignment affect my certainty of closing and timeline?

⚑ Attorney review required

Whether and how assignment is permitted, and the exact contract language, must be reviewed by an Indiana attorney and reflected in the signed agreement.

No hidden hand-offs

We tell you up front whether a contract can be assigned and what it means for you.
