Sample Domain Name Sale Agreement

There are a number of (optional) seller warranties included in the template domain sale agreement.

Balanced Domain Sale Agreement Q&A

Balanced Domain Sale Agreement Q&A

Does this domain agreement include an undertaking concerning the seller owning trade marks similar to the domain name?

Yes, an optional warranty is included, whereby the seller warrants and undertakes to the buyer that it "does not own and has not applied for directly or indirectly, any registered trade mark in any jurisdiction that is identical or confusingly similar to the domain name".

How can I guarantee that the buyer will pay the purchase price after the transfer of the domain name has been completed?

If the seller cannot get the money up-front, then it can be paid to a trusted third party, and held by that third party until the completion of the transfer, at which point it is paid to the seller. The funds are said to be held "in escrow" and businesses that provide this service are called escrow agents. You do not necessarily need to use an escrow business: for example funds may be held by a trusted solicitor or other professional.
