,,,,,,,the contract gives the buyer a date to move in and the seller a date to move out..........NO THEY CANT......once its been signed and exchanged you can sue their a55es off if they try to pull out. |

At this point the deal is done .
you are just waiting for completion,which can often happen on the same day as exchange |

From waht I know the only way the buyer can back out is if the appraisal comes back to low to not be able to finanace the house or financing is not approved. Just about any other reason has to be by seller permission but you would lose earnst money. I do not believe that the seller can back out unless the buyer agrees to let them unless some legality came up with the house. |

exchanging contracts makes the deal legally binding, if the buyer were to pull out the seller would be entitled to the buyers deposit and could sue them. i have never known this to happen though so dont worry. |

Doesn't the changing of contracts mean that completion has taken place? |

I am not to sure but I think you can't at that point both parties have signed to complete |

Not without severe penalties. Once contracts are exchanged, the sale is legally binding and extremely difficult to get out of and very costly |

YES, once you have exchanged contgracts, the buyers can back out but with reprocussions. They would have to pay a fine, usually a massive 25% of the POP (The property owned profit, the cost of the property minus thier mortgage). |

No.
A contract is a contract. You can sue for breach of contract and all your associated costs if they do. |

Once the contracts have exchanged no-one can pull out unless they want a heavy court battle.
Completetion is where you physically hand the keys over and the money is transferred. |

Yes but they would have a HEAVY penalty, when my house sold recently it would have been 25% of my mortgage. |

there's lots of loop holes here. it's a lawsuit possibly, and i'm sorry to say that it's easier for the firm to sue than the buyer.
the company can change their name, file bankruptcy, pull out of your area etc... goodluck anyway. |

Nope, if they do you can sue them for breach of contract.. |
