Buyer had pre approval letter. 1 week before first closing date they asked for extension. I agreed. Agent spoke with their agent etc. Happened a second time. I agreed, agent advised that I shouldn’t but that I’d get their deposit If it happened again. When they still couldn’t close I received deposit and home went back on the market. This was in 2019. The deposit covered my carrying costs for that extra time. I believe the lender who issued the pre approval was either deceived or didn’t do much to verify before issuing the letter.





That sucks. National bank?

I don’t remember, but the agent said they were “ok” when we took the offer. Second buyer after it went back on market was smooth as silk. 28 days to close I think.

Though I believe he was committing mortgage fraud and intending to use it as a rental. One of the docs during closing was him attesting he’d use it as primary residence.
