As soon as an agent or broker accepts an earnest money deposit on behalf of a seller, they become an escrow agent, and the money is placed in an escrow account. In most cases, when it enters into escrow, the earnest money cannot be released until both parties provide written permission.

In a hot market, the seller will sometimes ask to have the earnest money deposit released to him after the contingencies have been satisfied. The seller likes this because it means he will not have any trouble gaining possession of the deposit if the buyer defaults.

Earnest money has become standard, especially in today's competitive real estate markets. The purpose of earnest money is to tell the seller that you're serious about purchasing the home. By backing up your offer with some cash, a seller is more likely to trust that you'll follow through with the home purchase.

You can expect your earnest money back if: The home doesn't pass inspection. The home appraises below its sale price. You are unable to obtain a mortgage. The home has title search issues.

A seller can also add a “time is of the essence” clause into the purchase agreement. This means the closing date for the sale is binding. If the buyer can't close for any reason, the contract is breached and the seller can keep the earnest money deposit.

Earnest money protects the seller if the buyer backs out. It's typically around 1 – 3% of the sale price and is held in an escrow account until the deal is complete. The exact amount depends on what's customary in your market.
