Why would an email with a number not be a contract?

The same reason an mls listing is not a contract.

Huge difference, a mls listing is one sided so there’s clearly no meeting of the minds.

A written negotiation about the purchase price is completely different.

B: Hey, I’ll buy this from you for $2500

S: No, sorry. But I’ll take $50000

B: Deal!

Nope, the second step was not “I’ll take $50000”, it was “the price is $50000”. No different from an MLS listing.

He did not say, “if you pay $50,000, I will sell it to you.”
