A real-estate assignment contract is a piece of legal document that is used to transfer the legal obligations of a party of a contract (property) from one individual to another. That is, it is usually drawn up after a real-estate purchase agreement has been created and signed by the buyer and the seller. Once a real-estate assignment contract is signed, all the legal obligations of real-estate property are legally transferred from the seller to the buyer.

A standard real-estate assignment contract contains the following information.

  • The full names of all the parties involved in the real-estate assignment contract.
  • The full addresses of all the parties involved in the real-estate assignment contract.
  • The price and other costs associated with the property.
  • The date of sale of the property.
  • Term and conditions of sale.

Creating and Signing a Real-Estate Assignment Contract

A real-estate assignment contract can usually be developed using any software application that allows a user to create a word file or a PDF file. PDF.co provides a user the ability to embed an electronic signature using its tools. Below is a picture of an unfilled real estate assignment contract document, which is ready to be filled and signed.
