Still Learning!!!!

[Jill Williams]

Hello,

I want to know what is the truth on "Earnest Money".

I've heard some investors say that didn't have to pay.

Others said, they only paid $ 10.

One investor paid $1000.

So I guess my question is, who makes the determination of said amount.

Is it the sellers call, or the recommendation of the realtor?

Thanks so much!
