A real estate Partnership is when both the Realtor and the Client understand the actions required by contract once mutual acceptance has been reached.   On a rare occasion there is some misunderstanding by a Buyer Client that this is a show that they are watching and action on their part is not necessary.  This is not realistic as many of the contractual actions I am referring to are Buyer Client actions.  

For example, if there is a timeframe in a contract to get a home inspection completed within 10 days of mutual acceptance then the Buyer Client must make that appointment, as the inspector works for the Buyer....not the Realtor. If the appointment has not been scheduled, after multiple reminders from the Realtor,  then that 10 day inspection contingency will pass and the Buyer Client will not have a home inspection.  Unless the Buyer Client and Realtor agree that the appointment will be scheduled by the Realtor this remains the Buyer's action item.
