I just took the national exam and there was a question regarding earnest money. It asked if the contract was canceled due to a contingency, would the money be returned fully or minus expenses? I wasn’t sure if you can deduct expenses or not? Or have to return fully then charge for any expense. And what expenses would be acquired on their end that would qualify to be deducted?
Congratulations on passing your real estate exam!!!! That test is no joke! The answer is yes a ring can be used. Any item may be used for an earnest deposit as long as it's a legal object. Illegal drugs, for example, could not be used. Remember, the item must be specificly indicated in the contract and all parties to the contract must agree to the ring. Welcome to the real estate industry!!!!!
I had a question on the exam about who is allowed to hold escrow accountws? options were banks, salespersons, broker, title companies... can you help me understand.
What if there’s is a selling broker and a listing broker. If The selling broker receives the earnest money, what is going to happen? Does he have to write a check to the listing broker or he can keep it until the the transaction is consummated.
Hi Serge... yes this is explained in Option #2 & #3 of the this video... the selling broker (buyers broker) would deposit the buyers earnest check/money into their trust acoount. The selling broker would then write a check to the listing broker. The listing broker would deposit the check into their trust account. It would remain in the listing brokers trust account until the transaction is consummated or terminated IF the listing broker is to do the closing. If a 3rd party such as an attorney or escrow company will close the transaction....then the listing broker would write a check to them where they would deposit the check from the listing broker in their trust account.
It is mandatory that brokers put money belonging to other people (earnest money, rents, security deposits, etc.) in a trust account. Remember, a buyer and seller can agree to alternative arrengements. For example, they could agree in writing that an earnest money deposit be deposited into an interest bearing saving account.
Trust account questions are part of your state side of the exam. Every state has different process for dealing with these issues. You will need to know your state requirements
It may be that their former spouse returned the ring so they purchaser has nothing better to do :o) OR the seller wants a higher amount for earnest but the purchaser doesn't have the liquid funds. I've honestly never seen anything other than money in my 25+ years but I had a student in class one time indicate he sbumitted a car title with his offer to purchase farm land as earnest...

It can’t be a pound of cocaine 😂😂😂🤣
That's considered illegal consideration ;o)
What about a gun?
In reality, earnest deposits are worthless.... at least in the residential sales side of things.
There is some truth to what you say....
