Letter of intent when buying a house - Legal advice


Questioner

I need a letter of intent to purchase my house. Now my boss is afraid that it is legally binding and that I can therefore demand a permanent contract later. Is this so?

Lawyer

No, various court rulings have determined that you cannot derive any rights from a letter of intent regarding a contract for a fixed or indefinite period. The reasoning behind this is that it is issued for another purpose. Your employer therefore runs no risk when issuing it.
