[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4073201, member: 15054"] My understanding is a handshake is just as enforceable as a written agreement. I sold 80 acres with a 2000+sf house on a handshake and no money exchanged hands at handshake time. I got home 90 minutes later and wife told me she changed her mind about the 80 acres and house and said she liked it and wanted to keep it. I told her I sold it. She said did you get the money and I said no but I shook on it so the deal is done. She said just call him and say I changed my mind. I said no I shook on it and agreed and a mans word is all he has. But in the eyes of the law we are married and she did not shake on it so she could have fought that one. But she did not and she does not think that deep. [/QUOTE]
