The title company ultimately needs the earnest money deposit to complete the transaction. The earnest money deposit essentially ensures that the buyer doesnt just walk away from the transaction, but how is the amount determined? There isnt a great, straightforward answer to that question.
For example, the seller of a house may agree after the original sales contract has been written to include certain pieces of furniture for an additional specified sum. Mortgage terms or the closing date for the sale are often amended in real estate transactions, with the change noted in an addendum.
Since you are past your due diligence period, that money is gone if you back out. But any secondary earnest money will have a different date, usually it becomes non-refundable after you get your final financing approval.
Include a title, reference to the original contract, effective date, changes, purpose, signatures, and an optional integration clause. Keep formatting consistent, consult legal advice for complex changes, stay specific, and draft contracts with flexibility to minimize addenda.
An addendum is an addition to a finished document, such as a contract. The most common addendum is an attachment or exhibit at the end of such a document.
