Hi guys, I recommend that you put the following verbiage in the signature of your email account

“ Any information within this email cannot be construed or used as a binding contract”

  • This “may” help keep you out of trouble, if an agent tries to claim that your email to them constitutes a legal binding contract from your buyer or seller.
  • Per the electronic communications act, there must be 1) an intent to sign 

AND 

2) an electronic signature. 

Your name in an email signature could possibly qualify as “the signature”, but adding this disclaimer could show that you do not have an intent to bind a contract within your email communications.

  • If you have any questions, please contact the real estate attorney of your choice.
