real estate “option to purchase” contract?

Question by artguy90291: real estate “option to purchase” contract?
I am interested in buying a house here in Los Angeles Ca.
Since there is no one interested right now I want to have the option to purchase secured, for say 6 months. The seller wants to sell it to me but I just want to have an agreement that I can buy it at a fixed price within a time.
I have a form that is simple and says the above option but is it legal? Can someone else swoop in and buy it first even though I have this signed by the seller?
If it is legal, do I also have to get it notorized or recorded with the city to make it binding?

Best answer:

Answer by traderb550
I would get a real estate agent and an attorney involved right away to protect your purchase.

I just bought a house in Brentwood 2 months ago the exact same way! It’s a great time to purchase.

I had an attorney present and we worked it out!
