preliminary sales contract
preliminary contract for sales

In addition to the aircraft ordered, there is also a preliminary sales contract for a further 2 AgustaWestland AW189, also intended for offshore transport operations.

If you were unable to obtain the specified mortgage, you could then withdraw from the Contract (upon providing suitable proof from the lender mentioned in the Preliminary Sales Contract) and have your deposit returned.

When you have found a property to buy and have agreed the price with the owner, you will be asked to pay a 10% deposit and enter into the "Compromis de Vente" - or Preliminary Sales Contract.

Stage 2 - "Acte de Vente" Normally, and typically around 12 weeks after the Preliminary Sales Contract has been signed (and after various formalities have been completed), you will then be asked to sign the "Acte de Vente" (Final Act/Deed of Sale).
