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.

Yeah. Creates a whole chain of issues. Lucky we're risk-averse and left ourselves a healthy buffer.

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.

That's possible - in my parents case one time, the 'buyer' straight up passed away a day after they accepted the offer and deposit

They released their deposit to me, in exchange for mutual termination of the deal.
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.

Their purchase was dependent on sale of their home (this was not a condition of the contract). Presumably they couldn't sell at a price that made the financing work for them.

It is very strange that they didn't include the sale of their home as part of the conditions on the contract with you. 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.

well there are a few things.. and during the booming years.. there were realtors who were shit. 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.

Back when a relative of mine worked at a bank they said loads of people would screw it up partway through the process. 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.

I cannot say that I am surprised about this announcement given the current state of real estate market and the B.C. economy:
https://vancouversun.com/news/develo...%20forward.%27
A large Vancouver developer has cancelled a major project that was to add 204 homes, including condos and townhomes over several buildings, on a half square kilometre plot in southeast Vancouver.
Wesgroup Properties confirms that the Ardea project “is no longer viable for us” and blames “higher-than-anticipated construction and delivery costs.”
Ardea had been scheduled to be completed by spring 2028 and was billed as a concrete, waterfront development with “numerous pathways, extensive landscaping and a two-storey amenity building that includes a hot tub, cold plunge pool, steam and sauna room, a dining and kitchen lounge, and a gym.”
Wesgroup owns most of the land covered by the River District plan, which is on the site of a former sawmill on the Fraser River.
