sales agreement

Deal closing document

A sales agreement is a contract between a buyer and seller specifying terms of a transaction—price, payment schedule, delivery conditions, warranties.

The term applies across contexts from real estate to wholesale goods.

Unlike a simple receipt, a sales agreement typically binds both parties before the exchange is complete: We signed the sales agreement, but closing isn't until next month.
