An agreement contains provisions that will protect our interests as much as possible. The formation of a contract requires certain steps or elements before it will be legally binding. They are: offer, acceptance, consideration and in some cases the formality of a written document.

To write a deed of agreement we may consider the following rules:

• Find the following questions: Who, what, where, when, why, and how?
• Take time to write an agreement to minimize error.
• Use simple clear language. But one can use technical language if each of the parties understands it.
• Each of the provisions in the agreement should use active voice, be direct and to the point.
• Write out dates, numbers, payment amounts and proper nouns, so there will be no confusion in the agreement.
• Try to use short separately numbered paragraphs.
• Alternate the parties agreements or concessions in separate paragraphs dealing with one issue only.
• Be specific as to details such as time, place, method of payment etc.
• Agreements can be organized chronologically by task or by legal issue.
• Use headlines to keep every point clear.
• Use correct punctuation, spelling and layout.

The following components should be included in a deed of agreement for proper execution:

1. Description of the deed ( Headline/Caption of the Deed)
2. Date
3. Description of the parties
4. Recitals. For example: WHEREAS the parties to this deed is desirous to………….
5. Description of subject matter, transfer or conveyance, price consideration etc.
6. Testatum that is the operative part of a deed. For example: NOW THIS DEED THEREFORE WITNESSES as follows: …………….
