Sales Contract Template for Prefabricated Houses

The following core clauses can be used as a reference for designing a sales contract template for prefabricated houses, which can be adjusted according to actual needs before use:

I. Contract Parties and House Information

1. Contracting Parties: Clearly specify the basic information of the seller (the owner or developer of the prefabricated house) and the buyer (the home purchaser), including names, ID numbers, and contact details.
2. Basic House Information: Provide a detailed description of the house's location (such as the specific address), construction form (such as steel structure or concrete structure), building area (including the interior area and common area), purpose (residential/commercial), ancillary facilities (such as a list of decorations, furniture, and appliances), and property certificate number (if available).

II. Price and Payment Method

1. Total Price: Clearly state the total price of the house and indicate the pricing standard (such as calculation based on the unit price per building area).
2. Payment Method:
   • Installment Payment: Agree on the down payment ratio and subsequent installment payment milestones (such as paying a corresponding proportion when the project reaches the main structure封顶 or upon completion acceptance).
   • Loan Payment: If the buyer needs a loan, clarify the handling method in case the loan application fails (such as switching to a one-time payment or terminating the contract).
   • Deposit Clause: Agree on the deposit amount (not exceeding 20% of the total price) and the liability for breach of contract (such as the deposit being non-refundable if the buyer breaches the contract, and the seller returning double the deposit if the seller breaches the contract).

III. Delivery Conditions and Procedures

1. Delivery Time: Clearly specify the specific date or conditions (such as within X days after obtaining the 'Commercial Housing Pre-sale Permit').
2. Acceptance Standards: Refer to national or local quality standards for prefabricated houses and agree on the acceptance process (such as both parties signing a handover list and issuing a quality compliance certificate).
3. Expense Allocation: From the date of delivery, expenses such as property management fees and utility bills shall be borne by the buyer; expenses before delivery shall be the responsibility of the seller.

IV. Property Rights Registration and Transfer

1. Property Certificate Handling: The seller shall provide the documents required for transfer (such as the property certificate and a copy of the ID card) within X days after delivery and assist the buyer in handling property rights registration.
2. Expense Sharing: Clearly specify which party shall bear taxes and fees such as deed tax and maintenance funds (usually borne by the buyer, but can be negotiated and agreed upon).

V. Liability for Breach of Contract

1. Overdue Delivery: If the seller fails to deliver on time, a daily penalty shall be paid (such as a certain percentage of the total price per day).
2. Quality Defects: If quality problems occur within a certain period after delivery (such as one year), the seller shall be responsible for free repairs or compensation.
3. Contract Termination: If the property cannot be transferred or the house is seized due to the seller's reasons, the buyer has the right to terminate the contract and claim compensation for actual losses.

VI. Other Clauses

1. Force Majeure: If the contract cannot be performed due to force majeure such as natural disasters or policy adjustments, both parties shall not be held liable.
2. Dispute Resolution: Prioritize resolution through negotiation. If negotiation fails, submit the dispute to the court or arbitration institution in the location of the house for litigation or arbitration.

Precautions:

• The contract shall comply with laws and regulations such as the 'Civil Code' and the 'Measures for the Administration of the Sale of Commercial Houses'. It is recommended to have it reviewed by a lawyer.
• Clearly specify the quality standards and acceptance process for prefabricated houses to avoid disputes.
• Quantify payment milestones, liability for breach of contract, and other clauses to enhance operability.
