If a potential buyer gives me a down payment on my house to hold it until he sells his home, how long should I wait for him to sell his home?

When he made a offer and gave earnest money with the offer, and you signed and accepted the offer, the length of time he had to sell his home and an estimated closing should all be in the written material.
Then I assume that means that he and I can set whatever amount of time we feel comfortable with. Is there any "industry standard" for that type of situation?Quote:

Or at least get some amount of money to pay for you taking the house off the market while you wait on him to sell his home.
Thanks so much for the information. It gives some idea of where to start.Quote:
