New home purchase “contingent upon …” - Posted by able learner

I have a possible “subject 2” seller but they are building a new home which he described as having a “contingency clause.” Does that mean the seller can’t close on his new future home loan until he pays off his existing loan. OR does it mean that the clause protects him from having to close on the new home unless he takes care of his old payments in some manner. Or both?

What I mean is . . . does his contingency clause cut me out of completing a sub2 purchase of his old home.
