Confirmor

The confirmor must have such an estate and property in the thing of which the confirmation is made, as may enable him to confirm the estate to the confirmee; Dyer 109.

Confirmors buy and sell a property before a transaction is completed and they are generally thought to be speculators.

During the period between the signing of the provisional S&P agreement and the completion of the sale, “A” (the confirmor) sells the property to sub-purchaser “C” for a higher price.
