The Idaho residential purchase and sale agreement is used in the home buying process to specify the terms by which a buyer and seller agree to transfer ownership of residential property. The document is first completed by the buyer to convey their purchase offer to the seller. This proposal is irrevocable and remains in effect until the stated expiration date.

If the seller accepts the suggested sales price, closing date, inspection procedures, earnest deposit amount, and other conditions of sale, they may sign and initial the form to create a legally binding agreement. Alternatively, the seller can renegotiate the terms with a counteroffer or reject the offer entirely.
