Step-by-step process
- 1. Collect documents. Purchase contract, addenda, payment records, financing details, and written sales representations.
- 2. Confirm ownership and obligations. Identify maintenance terms, auto-renewal clauses, and transfer restrictions.
- 3. Build a written exit strategy. Define exactly who communicates, what is submitted, and in what sequence.
