Everything you need to know about the Promissory Purchase and Sale Agreement (CPCV)

The Promissory Purchase and Sale Agreement (CPCV) quickly becomes a key term and part of daily life for anyone involved in the process of buying or selling a property. Although not mandatory, it is highly recommended as it protects both the seller and the buyer, providing clear indications of their rights and obligations until the deed is executed. Essentially, it’s a way to ensure both parties can breathe a sigh of relief! The seller receives a deposit, and the buyer has their dream home secured!
