In Ohio commercial transactions, the transfer of personal property, fixtures, and Tenant Improvement (TI) assets requires more than a handshake. Under Ohio Rev. Code § 1335.05 (Statute of Frauds), transactions exceeding $500 must be documented in writing to be enforceable. As a commercial broker, ensuring your client has a formal Bill of Sale mitigates risks of misrepresentation claims and commission disputes. Our templates address specific Ohio requirements, including the necessary warranties and disclaimers to protect against future liabilities regarding CAM charges and leasehold improvements, while remaining compliant with RESPA and UCC standards.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Commercial Real Estate Broker:
A Bill of Sale serves the core legal purpose of providing proof of the transfer of ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer. It formalizes the transaction and fulfills the legal need for documentation of the sale, aiding in preventing disputes over ownership and clarifying the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved.
Misrepresentation claims
Detailed disclaimers in contracts stating that all representations are believed to be accurate but should be independently verified by clients.
Commission disputes
Clear agency agreements and commission schedules included in contracts outlining the fees and when they are earned.
For this bill of sale to be legally valid:
Common mistakes to avoid:
Ohio’s Statute of Frauds (ORC § 1335.05) mandates that contracts for the sale of goods over $500 or those involving real estate interests must be in writing. For commercial brokers, this means a formal Bill of Sale is essential when transferring trade fixtures, equipment, or furniture to ensure the agreement is legally binding in an Ohio court.
Yes. The document includes specific Description of the Item Sold sections where brokers can detail which FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment) are being transferred and specifies that they are free from liens, which is critical in Triple Net scenarios where CAM charges and maintenance responsibilities are contentious.
While ORC does not mandate notarization for all bills of sale, it is highly recommended for high-value commercial transactions to authenticate signatures. This adds a level of protection against future ownership disputes and fulfills common requirements for UCC financing statements often involved in commercial deals.
Our Bill of Sale includes 'As-Is' clauses and detailed Seller's Representations. This ensures that the buyer acknowledges the current condition of the property, protecting the broker from misrepresentation claims regarding the performance or age of commercial equipment or tenant improvements.
