Did you know that the real estate contract can actually expire? At least it doesn't stink like your milk might, but it does have an expiration date and time on it. This means that when a buyer puts in an offer on a property, they specify when they would like a response from a seller.

Typically, about 24 hours or maybe the end of the next day. So, if you are receiving an offer, make sure you pay attention to this expiration date so that you get your answer in before the contract expires, and the buyer goes and finds something else. Assuming you don't want their deal.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any real estate dilemmas, I will surely help you as much as I can.
