What is a Presale Condo Contract of Assignment?

“A contract assignment occurs when a buyer transfers the contract to buy property to someone else before the completion date. The buyer can transfer the contract for any price, even for a higher price than they paid for the property.” In theory, the new buyer is buying a “resale” of a previous “presale.” Hence, the coined term “presale resale.”
