Q. I am planning to buy a new home. I do not require an agent. Where can I find the contract forms to make an offer to buy?

A. An offer to buy becomes the purchase agreement once it's been signed and accepted by the seller. So it needs to follow all the legal requirements of your state.

Those forms are usually available at office supply stores, including Staples and Office Depot. Or you can order them on-line from audrie.com or uslegalforms.com. They allow you to download the forms over the Internet or mail paper copies.
