How it works
From contract to timeline in one email.
Step 01
Send Otto the contract
Email the fully executed purchase agreement to Otto, or BCC Otto when you send it to escrow.
otto@ottotc.comSend it directly or BCC Otto
Step 02
Otto reads every line
Acceptance date, deposit terms, contingency periods and close of escrow come straight from the RPA, then get counted with California's day rules. If something is unclear, a person reviews it rather than Otto guessing.
