A buyer makes a written offer to purchase a property and includes a $2,500 earnest money deposit. The
seller makes a counteroffer for more money. The buyer verbally accepts. The listing agent deposits the
money in the trust account at this point in time. When the buyer receives the seller's counteroffer, he
refuses to sign even though he had verbally agreed earlier. The seller is angry and tells the buyer that he
will not return the earnest deposit since the buyer has reneged on his word. In fact, the seller demands
that the listing agent give him the deposit. What must the real estate agent do regarding the earnest
money in this situation? - Answer: He must retain the deposit in the trust account until he obtains
written permission from the buyer and seller or await a court order.
Even if the seller is entitled to keep the earnest money, the Commission Rules state that both parties
must agree before the escrow agent can release the earnest money.
