bilateral promise to sell / preliminary sell agreement
Explanation:
In the preliminary sale agreement (or "bilateral promise to sell"), the seller and buyer both agree to conclude the sale at a jointly determined price. In legal terms, the preliminary sale agreement therefore has the status of a final sale. If either party cancels the sale, the other may take legal action and claim damages. The buyer pays between 5% and 10% of the selling price on signing the preliminary sale agreement. This sum, known as a deposit, is deducted from the price when the notarised instrument is signed.
Unlike the promise to sell, the preliminary sale agreement does not have to be registered with the tax authorities. The fact that charges are not applied is an advantage.

In franceza - promesse de vente
A sort of pre-contract signed by the seller and the buyer of a bien immobilier (property). It is advisable to have this drawn up by a professional. There are two types of 'promise to sell' contracts:
* 'La promesse unilatérale de vente' (unilateral promise to sell contract) that commits the seller, and not the buyer, during the time period that must be clearly specified in the contract,
* 'La promesse bilatérale de vente' (bilateral promise to sell), also called "synallagmatique", or 'compromis de vente', that commits the buyer in the same way as the seller. It is usual for the buyer to pay a deposit (in general 10% of the sale price) to guarantee that the contract be fulfilled.
In Spaniola- Promesa de venta

bilateral precontractual agreement to buy and sell
Atentie ca daca apare numai " agreement" inseamna ca e un contract si nu un precontract cum indica textul :)

Asker: ok, asta ar fi "promisiune bilaterala" ? si continuarea "de vanzare-cumparare a unui imobil" cum s-ar incadra aici?
