A legal agreement that outlines the terms of a sale in which the buyer agrees to make payments to the seller over time, rather than paying the full purchase price up front. Installment contracts can be used for the purchase of real estate, vehicles, or other large items. They typically include a down payment, regular payment schedule and a final balloon payment, but the terms and interest rate can vary.
