In this episode you will learn:
• Bilateral contracts are mutual agreements where both parties make promises and both are legally bound.
• Common bilateral examples on the exam include real estate purchase agreements and exclusive listing contracts.
• Unilateral contracts involve only one party making a binding promise contingent on the performance of an act by another.
• Real estate options and open listings are primary examples of unilateral contracts.
• A key exam distinction is that an option contract is unilateral until exercised, at which point it becomes bilateral.
