How Idaho contract deadlines are counted
Plain “days” are calendar days that do not move, but most RE-21 defaults are business days, which skip weekends and Idaho legal holidays. We skip only the major holidays, so a date can show earlier than Idaho’s full list would give, never later. Confirm against the current RE-21.
- Standard form
- Idaho REALTORS RE-21 Purchase and Sale Agreement (reviewed July 2019 edition; later revisions not reviewed)
- Day zero
- Acceptance
- Holidays used
- only the major holidays every state observes, so a date can come out earlier than your contract allows, never later
- Weekends and holidays
- Under the Idaho REALTORS RE-21 Purchase and Sale Agreement, deadlines generally do not move when they land on a weekend or holiday.
- How sure we are
- Partly verified. Some defaults come from an earlier version of the form; confirm against the one you signed.
