 Real Estate Contract
Real estate called leasehold estate is actually a rental of real property such as an apartment, and leases (rental contracts) cover such rentals since they typically do not result in recordable deeds.
Real estate contracts are typically bilateral contracts (i.e., agreed to by two parties) and should have the legal requirements specified by contract law in general and should also be in writing to be enforceable.
Often real estate contracts will provide for a lawyer review period of several days after the signing by the parties to check the provisions of the contract and counter propose any that are unsuitable.

 Jack Murray Reference, Ground Lease Assignee Remains Liable to Lessor After Leasehold Mortgage Foreclosure   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
The appellate court reversed the holding of the trial court in favor of the assignee, and ruled that foreclosure of the leasehold mortgage would not affect the obligations of the assuming leasehold assignee to the ground lessor, whose rights were independent of the foreclosing mortgagee.
The court also noted that an assignee who merely takes possession of the property has privity of estate with the lessor and is bound by all the lease covenants that run with the land, and that upon a subsequent assignment the original assignee's privity of estate, along with all obligations to the landlord, would cease.
Turning next to the issue of whether foreclosure of the leasehold mortgage terminated the leasehold assignee's obligations to the lessor, the court found that while the foreclosure terminated all subordinate interests it did not terminate the ground lessor's estate, which was a reversionary interest senior to the mortgage.
