THE COLORADO CONTRACT RUNS ON DATED DEADLINES, AND NONE OF THEM REQUIRES YOU IN THE ROOM.

The Commission's residential contract lists all its deadlines in a table at Section 3.1, including the earnest money deadline, the inspection objection, termination and resolution deadlines, the record title objection deadline, the new loan termination deadline, the appraisal deadline and its objection and resolution dates, the closing date and the possession date (VERIFIED on the 2019 form; the 2026 form keeps the same table with additional items). Earnest money is paid to and held by a named earnest money holder in a trust account for both parties (Section 4.3, VERIFIED).

Colorado's Uniform Electronic Transactions Act provides that a record or signature may not be denied legal effect or enforceability solely because it is electronic, and that an electronic record or signature satisfies a law requiring a writing or a signature (C.R.S. 24-71.3-107, VERIFIED). The act applies where the parties have agreed to transact electronically, judged from their conduct, and a party that agreed may still refuse to conduct a later transaction electronically (C.R.S. 24-71.3-105, VERIFIED).

What a remote buyer lacks is not a signature; it is a walk through the house. The inspection objection deadline is where that gap is closed: a radon test, a sewer scope, a roof and hail read, a soils question and a metro district check all happen inside it, and each finding is either fixed, priced or a reason to walk before the deadline passes. Set that date with the inspector's calendar in hand, not the seller's preference.
