Ralph Windschuh,
Agent, Ronkonkoma, NY
Kaska, What contingencies are you talking about? When dealing with anyone, it's always better to be up front about any "contingencies" or other any other issues a seller may have to consider when making a decision to take your offer. The "oh, by the way" approach is not a good idea - makes the owner wary of you and may make it difficult to deal. Things like a seller's concession or the fact that you currently own something that has to be sold in order for you to be able to purchase are material facts that should be disclosed. What you probably need is a buyer's agent - they work FOR the buyer, not merely WITH the buyer. I'd be happy to assist you if I can.
Please feel free to contact me with any further questions.

Agent, Nassau County, NY
Leave the contract details for the attorneys to discuss and handle, the agent is correct--your initial offer should include your mortgage pre-approval/pre-qualification letter, it should state the amount you are willing to pay, the downpayment amount and the option to have the property inspected by a licensed inspector--again, all contract details are handled by your attorney, therefore do hire one that specializes in real estate.
