Why do people offer on houses they can’t complete. Like why wouldn’t you have all your ducks in a row before making the biggest purchase in your life. These people scare me.

Why didn't you pursue the deal, can't you walk away with their deposit now.
Cactus club bro, how else are Realtors gonna eat if they don't put an offer in.

What kind of idiots are these ? I’m thinking some slack jawed yoko from the valley moving to DA BIG city and don’t know how anything works.
You could have sued them for completion and these hilly billys would have been fucked.

Devil's advocate here but it's possible that life events took a turn for the worse and they could no longer afford to complete (eg. job loss, illness, etc)

If you’re teetering on job loss, there are signs man. You wouldn’t fucking offer on houses.
Medical emergency maybe, but you have mortgage insurance for that.
Anyways none of this shit makes any sense.

They are still likely on the hook for the deposit even if I didn’t mutually terminate the contract, and likely for more… IE carrying costs and difference if sold lower. But I think it’s a fair trade for me not having to go to court for the deposit released and now I can sell a bit lower with the deposit amount to make me whole.

Oh I was under the impression you gave the deposit back. That makes sense then.

Presumably they couldn't sell at a price that made the financing work for them.

I certainly would have included that in, even if it meant hurting my chances to be picked as the buyer.

Realtor probably told them no chance the offer would be accepted with subject to sale, which is likely, but clearly didn’t give them a proper analysis of market conditions for a reasonable price.

They keep asking people to make an offer without the decency / heart / conscience if they can complete. Hey, when people make offer, they will find a way. Not my business... blah balh blah.
So during the boom when things were easy, no one cared. Parent bail them out etc. I'm just here to up my odds on making commission.
Nowadays, realtors don't even care. Just call me when you're ready type mentality. So they just click clicky click click and just ask people to sign.

They'd get approved for X amount, then go finance a truck, then go put an offer on a place based on a mortgage of X, only to go back to the bank and be shocked they now couldn't get a loan for as much.
