What is the VA Escape Clause Document?

Summerlin is one of the most desirable places to live in the Las Vegas area, offering a perfect blend of modern convenience and natural beauty. As a local real estate expert, I often tell clients that Summerlin truly has something for everyone—whether you're drawn to its scenic views of Red Rock Canyon, its top-tier schools, or its vibrant dining and shopping scene. The community is known for its well-planned neighborhoods, gorgeous parks, and a peaceful, upscale atmosphere that feels a world away from the Strip, yet still close enough to enjoy all that Las Vegas has to offer.

If you're looking for a place that feels like home from day one, Summerlin should be at the top of your list.

What Does the Escape Clause Do for Me as a Buyer?

This document is signed by all parties involved in the transaction. It clearly states that if there is any problem with an appraisal, the buyer(s) get their Earnest Money Deposit back if a new sales price cannot be agreed upon by both parties to the transaction.

Here's an example: If the home you want to buy is selling per your contract at $500,000.00 but the appraisal comes back at $450,000.00, then the buyer(s) are entitled to a full refund of their Earnest Money Deposit. This protects you if the seller(s) fail to honor that appriased value that differs from the contracted sales price.

The form on the left is an example of a VA Escape Clause. The form you sign will be similar to this one. Call me anytime if you have questions about this document.
