A Letter Of Intent For Property Sale is a crucial preliminary document used in Nigerian property transactions to establish the initial framework for property sale negotiations. This document is typically employed when parties have reached a preliminary understanding regarding a property transaction but need to formalize their intentions before proceeding with detailed due diligence and final contract negotiations. It outlines key commercial terms such as property details, proposed purchase price, timeline, and any exclusivity arrangements, while maintaining its primarily non-binding nature except for specific provisions. The document must consider Nigerian legal requirements, particularly the Land Use Act 1978 and state-specific property regulations. It serves as a stepping stone between initial discussions and the final sale agreement, providing structure to the negotiation process while protecting both parties' interests through confidentiality and exclusivity provisions where applicable.
