When writing an offer on a property in BC we use what is called a Contract of Purchase and Sale. Your offer will contain 5 important elements: The price, the deposit amount, (5% of the purchase amount is standard), subject conditions, dates and finally inclusions and exclusions. In other words what is included in the sale price, for example all the appliances, and what is not, like an antique chandelier.
