What are valid and invalid contracts?
"Invalid contract" might describe the terms of an agreement that purports to be a contract--but by one or more legal theories does not constitute one, and is therefore unenforceable as one. This refers to a defect in contract formation--whose elements are those of mutual assent (effectively-communicated offer and acceptance) and consideration (a bargained-benefit or detriment). An "invalid contract" may or may not be enforceable as a set of one or more enforceable promises, depending on whether alternative theories apply, such as that of promissory estoppel.Void contract, as compared with voidable contract,refers to a contract that has become void by reason of one or more contract-law avoidance theories.

What is the Difference between void contracts and voidable contracts?
A void contract is one that has no effect due to some fundamental defect. Generally no property can pass under a void contract. Contracts contrary to public policy, for example, to restrain another from pursuing their business, are usually void. A voidable contract on the other hand, is a valid contract but the law gives one party an option whether or not to proceed with the agreement. For instance, there may be misrepresentation which allows the innocent party to make certain choices, thus a contract declared voidable. • •
