What is a sale contingency and can I use one in James Island?

A sale contingency makes a buyer's purchase conditional on successfully selling their current home first, giving them time to close one deal before committing fully to another. It can be used on a James Island offer, but sellers in a competitive situation often view it as a weaker offer compared to one without that condition attached.
