If you have no problem forfeiting your earnest money as liquidated damages for the seller, you can back out at any time without cause.

If you are seeking a refund of your earnest money, you will need to utilize one of the contingencies in your offer as a means of having grounds for it to be refunded to you. As you are scheduled to close in 15 days, it might be too late for that and all of your congingencies have now been deemed waived.

Financing may be the only means left for that claim to be refunded your earnest money, but you will need proof of being turned down or denied financing.

This late in the game, the seller might be entitled to retain it.

No one can force you to the closing table to sign, but you may well find yourself the subject of litigation if you back out this late in the game. You will most assuredly lose any earnest money downpayment you may have paid. Additionally, the seller can (and may) sue you for financial losses incurred by the seller because of your decision. As well you can be sued for specific performance of the contract.

Do NOT take this lightly. I've seen it happen a few times, and it cost the buyer tens of thousands of dollars once the court awarded damages to the sellers.


estielmo
Why? You'll lose your money and you could be sued.


Real Estate Guy
Sellers this is why you get a large deposit.

This buyer is ready and the seller is ready.

We REQUIRE a 25,000 (5%) deposit. If you have a problem with it, we don't sell the house and build it.

In this market, we have a kick out rate of only 4%. Other builders have a 60-80% kick out. And no, are sales are the same as they were 3 years ago. Our prices have dropped , but sales are just as good.

sorry to tell you, but you're in on the deal, after you sighn that paper the house is you'rs but one thing that you could do is turn right back around and sell the house and if not maby you can talk the realtor in to it.

Had one do this to me one time.. I was glad to take their deposit, as it was off the market for six weeks,, Deposit was less than the rent would have been, or the interest on the loan had it gone thru.. Could I have sued for performance?? Sure, but many times it can be a toss up. and why mess with my KARMA?

yes, pull your offer.

If you're just having cold feet, it's up to the Seller as to whether or not they want to accept your reasons for pulling out. But if there are contingencies such as, you can't get financing; the repairs will exceed the amount you and your Realtor named in the contract; there are termites; there will be a zoning change that will impact the home; the amount of acreage is much less than identified in the ad; or it doesn't appraise at the sales price, then you should legally be able to withdraw and get your earnest money back.

You will lose your "good faith binder" and that's it...your out!

Don't listen to these people, most of them are realtors probably. Just talk to your realtor and explain the situation. They can talk to the seller and come to a reasonable agreement. I have pulled out of 2 or 3 deals and never lost any money, not even my deposit.
