- Definition
The number of lots that are controlled under real estate option agreements as of the balance sheet date. A real estate option contract is a legal agreement between the potential buyer of a real estate property and the owner of that property. The real estate option contract gives the potential buyer the exclusive right to buy the property at a specific price within a specific time period. The potential buyer typically pays the property owner a deposit for the right granted in the option contract.
