Earnest Money?
So to make a long story short.
My Realestate agent allowed us to sign a contract without having to provide an earnest money check. We went through the inspection and the house has maybe 20 thousand dollars according to inspection. We no longer want to proceed with the purchasing the home but the real estate agent is now pushing us to provide the earnest money check. I can't afford to loose 1000 dollars of earnest money and Im scared I will. What should i do?
