An early assignment is most likely to happen if the call option is deep in the money and the stock’s ex-dividend date is close to the option expiration date.
If your account does not hold the shares needed to cover the obligation, an early assignment would create a short stock position in your account. This may incur borrowing fees and make you responsible for any dividend payments.
Also note that if you hold a short call on a stock that has a dividend payment coming in the near future, you may be responsible for paying the dividend even if you close the position before it expires.
If it's at expiration | If it's at expiration |
---|---|
This means your account must have enough money to buy the shares of the underlying at the strike price or you may incur a margin call. Actions you can take: If you don’t have the money to pay for the shares, you can buy the put option before it expires, closing out the position and eliminating the risk of assignment and the risk of a margin call. |
An early assignment generally happens when the put option is deep in the money and the underlying stock does not have an ex-dividend date between the current time and the expiration of the option.
Short call + long call
(The same principles apply to both two-leg and four-leg strategies)
If the and the at expiration |
---|
This means your account will deliver shares of the underlying—i.e., sell them at the strike price. Actions you can take: If you don’t have the shares to sell, or don’t want to establish a short stock position, you can buy the short call before expiration, closing out the position. If the short leg is closed before expiration, the long leg may also be closed, but it will likely not have any value and can expire worthless. |
This would leave your account short the shares you’ve been assigned, but the risk of the position would not change . The long call still functions to cover the short share position. Typically, you would buy shares to cover the short and simultaneously sell the long leg of the spread.
Pay attention to short in-the-money call legs on the day prior to the stock’s ex-dividend date, because an assignment that evening would put you in a short stock position where you are responsible for paying the dividend. If there’s a risk of early assignment, consider closing the spread.
Short put + long put
If the and the at expiration |
---|
This means your account will buy shares of the underlying at the strike price. Actions you can take: If you don’t have the money to pay for the shares, or don’t want to, you can buy the put option before it expires, closing out the position and eliminating the risk of assignment. Once the short leg is closed, you can try to sell the long leg if it has any value, or let it expire worthless if it doesn’t. |
Early assignment would leave your account long the shares you’ve been assigned. If your account does not have enough buying power to purchase the shares when they are assigned, this may create a Fed call in your account.
However, the long put still functions to cover the position because it gives you the right to sell shares at the long put strike price. Typically, you would sell the shares in the market and close out the long put simultaneously.
Long call + short call
If the and the at expiration |
---|
This means your account will buy shares at the long call’s strike price. Actions you can take: If you don’t have enough money in your account to pay for the shares, or you don’t want to, you can simply sell the long call option before it expires, closing out the position. However, unless you are approved for Level 4 options trading, you must close out the short leg first (or simultaneously). The easiest way to do this is to use the spread order ticket to buy to close the short leg and sell to close the long leg. Assuming the short leg is worth less than $0.10, the E*TRADE Dime Buyback program would apply, and you’ll pay no commission to close that leg. |
Debit spreads have the same early assignment risk as credit spreads only if the short leg is in-the-money.
An early assignment would leave your account short the shares you’ve been assigned, but the risk of the position would not change . The long call still functions to cover the short share position. Typically, you would buy shares to cover the short share position and simultaneously sell the remaining long leg of the spread.

This means your account will buy shares at the long call’s strike price. Actions you can take: If you don’t have the shares, the automatic exercise would create a short position in your account.

(when all legs are in-the-money or all are out-of-the-money)
If all legs are at expiration | If all legs are at expiration |
---|---|
For call spreads, this will buy shares at the long call’s strike price and sell shares at the short call’s strike price. For put spreads, this will sell shares at the long put strike price and buy shares at the short put strike price. In either case, this will happen in the account after expiration, usually overnight, and is called . Your account does not need to have money available to buy shares for the long call or short put because the sale of shares from the short call or long put will cover the cost. There will be no Fed call or margin call. |
Pay attention to short in-the-money call legs on the day prior to the stock’s ex-dividend date because an assignment that evening would put you in a short stock position where you are responsible for paying the dividend. If there’s a risk of early assignment, consider closing the spread.

To be able to really understand what an assignment is, you need to know a few things:
With an assignment, the Seller is actually selling their interest in a property (in other words, their contract with the builder). They aren’t selling the actual condo (as they don’t own it yet); they are selling their promise to purchase a property .
When you purchase an assignment, you are essentially stepping into the shoes of the original purchaser. You can’t renegotiate the price or terms of the contract, you are simply taking over the contract as it already exists.
It’s important to note that some builders won’t allow their original purchasers to assign contracts , or will only do so for a fee (we’ve seen assignment fees from $750 to $7,000). Builder approval to assign a contract is almost always necessary.
The assignment process is a tricky one, with risks, legal requirements and paperwork that doesn’t look anything like the usual agreement of purchase and sale for a condo. If you’re considering an assignment, make sure you work with a REALTOR who understands the intricacies of assignments and can guide you through the process. As always, we’d be happy to help!

Do you have 2 bedroom unit in 50 Wellesley?
No sorry, we don’t have anything at 50 Wellesley right now.
Can you explain how the above might affect an “assigned sale” property being rented out?
In other words- if I purchased a unit – and it’s currently under assigned sale and I wish to rent it out in an unfinished building at the moment is there anything the prospective tenant should know ahead of time?
The original agreement of purchase and sale with the builder will define what’s allowed during the occupancy period – some builders restrict rentals completely, some want to approve them, some allow rentals if the buyer uses the builder’s agent and some let people do whatever they want.
Do you have any advice on selling a condo assignment? How successful are they?
Condo assignments aren’t easy or in huge demand, but if you bought in a sold-out building that people are still interested in, it’s totally possible. That assumes you have the right to assign the unit in your contract of course…
If the Agreement of purchase and sale stated that prior to closing, the purchaser covenants and agrees not to sell, lease, transfer or assign this Agreement or unit, could I still be able to assign the unit if I pay a fee with the vendor written consent?
It sounds like you’ve agreed not to do it in your contract…you’d have to talk to the builder to see if they are are open changing the terms of your contract.
If i am buying an Assignment with a tenant in the unit in May and i plan to use it as my primary residence after final closing in September 2016. Does the few months of rent I receive from the tenant affect my qualification for the HST rebate?
You’ll want to check that with your lawyer…HST rebate laws are complicated and beyond the scope of what we can give advice about. Good luck!
if i buy an assignment condo with a purchase price higher that what original buyer paid, how is the land transfer tax calculated? Builder only charges tax based on original purchase price. How should I declare the purchase price, so when i sell the condo few years down the road and if I have to pay capital gain, I won’t have to pay capital gain based on the price I actually paid?
Excellent questions! You’ll want to talk to your lawyer/accountant about that…that’s outside of the scope of the advice we can give.
You might find this Ministry of Finance bulletin useful:
http://www.fin.gov.on.ca/en/guides/ltt/guidenote1.html
Generally though, when it comes to land transfer tax you are paying tax on the value of what you bought, i.e. What YOU paid. For capital gain, I expect you only pay tax on whatever gain YOU had. Gain that happened on someone else’s watch is their problem!
As Melanie says though, you need an accountant and lawyer to advise on your particular situation.
sorry in my last comment, I meant ” I won’t have to pay capital gain based on the price original buyer paid”
if I buy an assignment property, do I pay the despoits to original buyer right away or do I wait until closing also do I have to get mortage pre approval right away or can I wait until later.
How likely is it that a seller is able to get a higher price on an assignment than they paid? If they do, then is the buyer required to pay the entire amount at once?
Many people successfully assign properties at a premium. On the closing of the assignment, the buyer pays you whatever deposit you paid the builder + any profit you’ve agreed on. They pay the rest of the money (usually via mortgage) to the builder when the building registers.
Hello, I am looking to assign my newly-built three-bedroom townhouse in Mississauga (close to Erin Mills Town Centre mall) as I am moving out of the country. My agent said that we are not allowed to advertised on MLS so how are we supposed to find potential buyers then? Word-of-mouth really restricts the buyers pool. Well, if anyone is interested please let me know by responding to this comment. Thanks.
Where and how you are allowed to advertise an assignment is set by the builder and would have formed part of the Agreement of Purchase and Sale that you signed. While it’s sometimes possible to negotiate these things while you’re making the purchase, if you signed something that restricted marketing, unfortunately you’re options are few. Hopefully you’re working with an agent who does a lot of assignments and has a ready list of buyers!
Actually, I am not sure if you would answer to my question but… I at least wanted to try as I am very desperate to hear 3rd expert’s invaluable opinion. I am in the process of buying an assignment and currently waiting for a builder to approve my contract with an original purchaser. My issue here is… this approval has been pending for about 6 months now and I was wondering if it is a common case. Regardless it’s common or not, what reason do you think there is, why the builder put a hold on to approve this agreement this long? The original written contract between the original seller and the builder clearly indicates that their contract can be assigned one time before the condo registration so this whole thing was totally allowed.
It would be deeply appreciated if you could provide some thoughts on this. Thank you very much.
I’m not able to answer your question because it’s a current transaction, and of course, I don’t know the whole story. I would suggest you talk to the agent who is representing you – they should be able to shed some light on what’s going on!
Hi, I am an international investor who recently purchased a condo which will complete in 2020. I am instructed that if I want to sell once we approach completion this is called an assignment. In my contract there are no restrictions as long as 90% of the units have been sold. My question is as an international investor is there any other tax implications that I should be aware of??
You should talk to your realtor and an accountant to understand the current tax situation (which of course may very well change by 2020).
Could assignement fees be negotiated with the builder?
Yes, during the initial negotiation of the purchase contract.
MLS allow to advertise underconstruction condo for sale if builder gives consent to do so ?
Could you “sell” your assignment to your kids? Of course without a profit on my end, at the price of the purchase I have made years ago when it was still cheap? What costs other than the legal and developer fees do I need to consider?
You can sell your assignment to your kids at whatever price you want..though check with an accountant to see if there are any tax implications for either of you. Legal fees are usually the only thing you’ll need to account for, other than builder assignment fees. Developer fees and land transfer taxes would be paid by your kids..
What percentage would you typically purchase an assignment compared to an actual closed unit?
The price totally depends on what’s happening with demand/supply in the building…closed units usually come at a premium (given additional costs incurred by the buyer) but it is building-dependent.
Thanks for the helpful article (and comments!). I bought a unit off-plan in Feb 2015 and the property has definitely increased in value since that time. The latest interim occupancy date is for June 2018 but I’m considering selling my unit on assignment – do you have any guidelines for setting the price?
I’d suggest you work with an agent who is experienced with assignments! They’ll be able to help you set the price and find a buyer. Happy to connect you with our assignment specialist – just email [email protected]
Hi When I buy an assignment, wondering if I can get a mortgage on an assignment price? Or the original price will be the price that I can get mortgage on

Assignment is a legal term whereby an individual, the “assignor,” transfers rights, property, or other benefits to another known as the “ assignee .” This concept is used in both contract and property law. The term can refer to either the act of transfer or the rights /property/benefits being transferred.
Under contract law, assignment of a contract is both: (1) an assignment of rights; and (2) a delegation of duties , in the absence of evidence otherwise. For example, if A contracts with B to teach B guitar for $50, A can assign this contract to C. That is, this assignment is both: (1) an assignment of A’s rights under the contract to the $50; and (2) a delegation of A’s duty to teach guitar to C. In this example, A is both the “assignor” and the “delegee” who d elegates the duties to another (C), C is known as the “ obligor ” who must perform the obligations to the assignee , and B is the “ assignee ” who is owed duties and is liable to the “ obligor ”.
(1) Assignment of Rights/Duties Under Contract Law
There are a few notable rules regarding assignments under contract law. First, if an individual has not yet secured the contract to perform duties to another, he/she cannot assign his/her future right to an assignee . That is, if A has not yet contracted with B to teach B guitar, A cannot assign his/her rights to C. Second, rights cannot be assigned when they materially change the obligor ’s duty and rights. Third, the obligor can sue the assignee directly if the assignee does not pay him/her. Following the previous example, this means that C ( obligor ) can sue B ( assignee ) if C teaches guitar to B, but B does not pay C $50 in return.
(2) Delegation of Duties
If the promised performance requires a rare genius or skill, then the delegee cannot delegate it to the obligor. It can only be delegated if the promised performance is more commonplace. Further, an obligee can sue if the assignee does not perform. However, the delegee is secondarily liable unless there has been an express release of the delegee. That is, if B does want C to teach guitar but C refuses to, then B can sue C. If C still refuses to perform, then B can compel A to fulfill the duties under secondary liability.
Lastly, a related concept is novation , which is when a new obligor substitutes and releases an old obligor. If novation occurs, then the original obligor’s duties are wiped out. However, novation requires an original obligee’s consent .
Under property law, assignment typically arises in landlord-tenant situations. For example, A might be renting from landlord B but wants to another party (C) to take over the property. In this scenario, A might be able to choose between assigning and subleasing the property to C. If assigning , A would be giving C the entire balance of the term, with no reversion to anyone whereas if subleasing , A would be giving C for a limited period of the remaining term. Significantly, under assignment C would have privity of estate with the landlord while under a sublease, C would not.

What this handout is about.
The first step in any successful college writing venture is reading the assignment. While this sounds like a simple task, it can be a tough one. This handout will help you unravel your assignment and begin to craft an effective response. Much of the following advice will involve translating typical assignment terms and practices into meaningful clues to the type of writing your instructor expects. See our short video for more tips.
Regardless of the assignment, department, or instructor, adopting these two habits will serve you well :
Many assignments follow a basic format. Assignments often begin with an overview of the topic, include a central verb or verbs that describe the task, and offer some additional suggestions, questions, or prompts to get you started.
The instructor might set the stage with some general discussion of the subject of the assignment, introduce the topic, or remind you of something pertinent that you have discussed in class. For example:
“Throughout history, gerbils have played a key role in politics,” or “In the last few weeks of class, we have focused on the evening wear of the housefly …”
Pay attention; this part tells you what to do when you write the paper. Look for the key verb or verbs in the sentence. Words like analyze, summarize, or compare direct you to think about your topic in a certain way. Also pay attention to words such as how, what, when, where, and why; these words guide your attention toward specific information. (See the section in this handout titled “Key Terms” for more information.)
“Analyze the effect that gerbils had on the Russian Revolution”, or “Suggest an interpretation of housefly undergarments that differs from Darwin’s.”
Here you will find some questions to use as springboards as you begin to think about the topic. Instructors usually include these questions as suggestions rather than requirements. Do not feel compelled to answer every question unless the instructor asks you to do so. Pay attention to the order of the questions. Sometimes they suggest the thinking process your instructor imagines you will need to follow to begin thinking about the topic.
“You may wish to consider the differing views held by Communist gerbils vs. Monarchist gerbils, or Can there be such a thing as ‘the housefly garment industry’ or is it just a home-based craft?”
These are the instructor’s comments about writing expectations:
“Be concise”, “Write effectively”, or “Argue furiously.”
These instructions usually indicate format rules or guidelines.
“Your paper must be typed in Palatino font on gray paper and must not exceed 600 pages. It is due on the anniversary of Mao Tse-tung’s death.”
The assignment’s parts may not appear in exactly this order, and each part may be very long or really short. Nonetheless, being aware of this standard pattern can help you understand what your instructor wants you to do.
Ask yourself a few basic questions as you read and jot down the answers on the assignment sheet:
Who is your audience.
Try to look at the question from the point of view of the instructor. Recognize that your instructor has a reason for giving you this assignment and for giving it to you at a particular point in the semester. In every assignment, the instructor has a challenge for you. This challenge could be anything from demonstrating an ability to think clearly to demonstrating an ability to use the library. See the assignment not as a vague suggestion of what to do but as an opportunity to show that you can handle the course material as directed. Paper assignments give you more than a topic to discuss—they ask you to do something with the topic. Keep reminding yourself of that. Be careful to avoid the other extreme as well: do not read more into the assignment than what is there.
Of course, your instructor has given you an assignment so that they will be able to assess your understanding of the course material and give you an appropriate grade. But there is more to it than that. Your instructor has tried to design a learning experience of some kind. Your instructor wants you to think about something in a particular way for a particular reason. If you read the course description at the beginning of your syllabus, review the assigned readings, and consider the assignment itself, you may begin to see the plan, purpose, or approach to the subject matter that your instructor has created for you. If you still aren’t sure of the assignment’s goals, try asking the instructor. For help with this, see our handout on getting feedback .
Given your instructor’s efforts, it helps to answer the question: What is my purpose in completing this assignment? Is it to gather research from a variety of outside sources and present a coherent picture? Is it to take material I have been learning in class and apply it to a new situation? Is it to prove a point one way or another? Key words from the assignment can help you figure this out. Look for key terms in the form of active verbs that tell you what to do.
Key Terms: Finding Those Active Verbs
Here are some common key words and definitions to help you think about assignment terms:
Information words Ask you to demonstrate what you know about the subject, such as who, what, when, where, how, and why.
Relation words Ask you to demonstrate how things are connected.
Interpretation words Ask you to defend ideas of your own about the subject. Do not see these words as requesting opinion alone (unless the assignment specifically says so), but as requiring opinion that is supported by concrete evidence. Remember examples, principles, definitions, or concepts from class or research and use them in your interpretation.
More Clues to Your Purpose As you read the assignment, think about what the teacher does in class:
Now, what about your reader? Most undergraduates think of their audience as the instructor. True, your instructor is a good person to keep in mind as you write. But for the purposes of a good paper, think of your audience as someone like your roommate: smart enough to understand a clear, logical argument, but not someone who already knows exactly what is going on in your particular paper. Remember, even if the instructor knows everything there is to know about your paper topic, they still have to read your paper and assess your understanding. In other words, teach the material to your reader.
Aiming a paper at your audience happens in two ways: you make decisions about the tone and the level of information you want to convey.
You’ll find a much more detailed discussion of these concepts in our handout on audience .
With a few exceptions (including some lab and ethnography reports), you are probably being asked to make an argument. You must convince your audience. It is easy to forget this aim when you are researching and writing; as you become involved in your subject matter, you may become enmeshed in the details and focus on learning or simply telling the information you have found. You need to do more than just repeat what you have read. Your writing should have a point, and you should be able to say it in a sentence. Sometimes instructors call this sentence a “thesis” or a “claim.”
So, if your instructor tells you to write about some aspect of oral hygiene, you do not want to just list: “First, you brush your teeth with a soft brush and some peanut butter. Then, you floss with unwaxed, bologna-flavored string. Finally, gargle with bourbon.” Instead, you could say, “Of all the oral cleaning methods, sandblasting removes the most plaque. Therefore it should be recommended by the American Dental Association.” Or, “From an aesthetic perspective, moldy teeth can be quite charming. However, their joys are short-lived.”
Convincing the reader of your argument is the goal of academic writing. It doesn’t have to say “argument” anywhere in the assignment for you to need one. Look at the assignment and think about what kind of argument you could make about it instead of just seeing it as a checklist of information you have to present. For help with understanding the role of argument in academic writing, see our handout on argument .
There are many kinds of evidence, and what type of evidence will work for your assignment can depend on several factors–the discipline, the parameters of the assignment, and your instructor’s preference. Should you use statistics? Historical examples? Do you need to conduct your own experiment? Can you rely on personal experience? See our handout on evidence for suggestions on how to use evidence appropriately.
Make sure you are clear about this part of the assignment, because your use of evidence will be crucial in writing a successful paper. You are not just learning how to argue; you are learning how to argue with specific types of materials and ideas. Ask your instructor what counts as acceptable evidence. You can also ask a librarian for help. No matter what kind of evidence you use, be sure to cite it correctly—see the UNC Libraries citation tutorial .
You cannot always tell from the assignment just what sort of writing style your instructor expects. The instructor may be really laid back in class but still expect you to sound formal in writing. Or the instructor may be fairly formal in class and ask you to write a reflection paper where you need to use “I” and speak from your own experience.
Try to avoid false associations of a particular field with a style (“art historians like wacky creativity,” or “political scientists are boring and just give facts”) and look instead to the types of readings you have been given in class. No one expects you to write like Plato—just use the readings as a guide for what is standard or preferable to your instructor. When in doubt, ask your instructor about the level of formality they expect.
No matter what field you are writing for or what facts you are including, if you do not write so that your reader can understand your main idea, you have wasted your time. So make clarity your main goal. For specific help with style, see our handout on style .
The technical information you are given in an assignment always seems like the easy part. This section can actually give you lots of little hints about approaching the task. Find out if elements such as page length and citation format (see the UNC Libraries citation tutorial ) are negotiable. Some professors do not have strong preferences as long as you are consistent and fully answer the assignment. Some professors are very specific and will deduct big points for deviations.
Usually, the page length tells you something important: The instructor thinks the size of the paper is appropriate to the assignment’s parameters. In plain English, your instructor is telling you how many pages it should take for you to answer the question as fully as you are expected to. So if an assignment is two pages long, you cannot pad your paper with examples or reword your main idea several times. Hit your one point early, defend it with the clearest example, and finish quickly. If an assignment is ten pages long, you can be more complex in your main points and examples—and if you can only produce five pages for that assignment, you need to see someone for help—as soon as possible.
Your instructors are not fooled when you:
Critical reading of assignments leads to skills in other types of reading and writing. If you get good at figuring out what the real goals of assignments are, you are going to be better at understanding the goals of all of your classes and fields of study.

Key Takeaways:
Pink discharge is vaginal discharge that has a pinkish tint. If your discharge is pink, it usually means it contains blood. This can be completely normal, and often happens before, during or after a period when fresh blood mixes with your vaginal mucus. However, sometimes pink discharge with no period can be a sign of something more serious. Understanding what normal discharge is for you is the key to understanding whether any discharge — whether it’s pink or another color — is cause for concern.
Pink vaginal discharge is typically caused by a small amount of blood mixing with normal vaginal secretions, often due to factors like hormonal changes, ovulation, implantation bleeding, infections, or cervical irritation. Some of the most common causes include:
The most common cause of pink discharge is your period. But sometimes, you may have pink discharge during another part of your menstrual cycle. This could be down to a number of different things as highlighted above, from an infection to pregnancy.
The duration of pink discharge can vary depending on the cause, but it typically lasts a few days. Hormonal changes, such as those from birth control, may cause pink discharge for a few days or weeks. Implantation bleeding might last one to two days, and if the discharge is caused by an infection or medical condition like uterine fibroids or endometriosis, it may persist or keep recurring until the underlying issue is addressed.
If you have pink discharge for more than a few days, it reappears in more than one cycle, or it’s accompanied by any other symptoms, you should consult your healthcare provider for advice.
Whether you have any other symptoms — and what those symptoms are — depends on the cause of the pink discharge. Here are some common ones:
If you’re worried about any symptoms, it’s important to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
The treatment for pink discharge is dependent on the cause. If it’s just a normal part of your menstrual cycle, then no treatment is needed. However, if it’s caused by something else, you may need to address the root cause. Examples may include:
You should see a doctor if pink discharge is persistent, occurs frequently, or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms such as pelvic pain, cramping, a foul odor, itching, or heavy bleeding.
You should also consult your healthcare provider if you experience pink discharge during pregnancy to rule out any potential complications, especially if it’s accompanied by pain.
Most normal discharge is white, but for some people, it may appear slightly yellowish. Additionally, pre-period spotting can appear like pink discharge, and that's usually totally normal too. Knowing what's normal for you is key — so if you ever have any discharge, of any color, that isn't normal for you, or you're worried about, then you should see a doctor for further evaluation, advice, and treatment.
Every menstrual cycle is different — that’s why it’s so powerful to learn about what normal looks like for you. Natural Cycles allows you to track changes throughout your cycle, including spotting. That means you can learn all about your own unique cycle, helping you to better understand your own body and more quickly spot any unusual signs or symptoms.
