What is a Kick Out Clause?

Answer

A kick-out clause refers to a clause in a contract for a real estate sale which sets up a contingency which, when triggered, causes the contract to either lapse or be made good. It is often used when a home buyer places a house under contract with the understanding that he must sell his current house before finalising the new purchase.
