HOTLINE Q&A

Republished from TN Realtors®
The Digest: 4/10/2023
|
Earnest Money and Mutual Release Forms
Q: My question is when a lender states that the earnest money is to be given back to the buyer during a transaction that is going to close, do we need to do a mutual release for the earnest money? I would think that since we have to do an amendment to the contract stating it's going back to the buyer and everyone signs it then we wouldn't need the mutual release of escrow correct?
A: No, the mutual release form releases everyone from the contract. As long as it appears on the closing statement as to where the funds are going, that is fine.
