An optionee is the individual or entity that receives an option to purchase property at a future date for a predetermined price. This provides the optionee the right but not the obligation to complete the transaction. Options are commonly used in real estate and financial markets.
A Rolling Option provides the right to extend the term of a purchase option by offering some form of compensation. The option holder can delay purchasing the property under specified terms.
