The Lease Option Agreement Property For Sale is a specialized legal instrument used in Hong Kong real estate transactions where parties wish to combine a leasing arrangement with a potential future sale. This document is particularly useful when a potential buyer wishes to occupy and evaluate a property before committing to a purchase, or when they need time to arrange financing. It provides flexibility while securing both parties' interests under Hong Kong law. The agreement includes detailed provisions for both the lease period (including rent, maintenance, and other tenant obligations) and the purchase option (including price, exercise period, and conditions). This type of agreement is commonly used in both residential and commercial property transactions, requiring compliance with Hong Kong's property, contract, and conveyancing laws.
