What Is a Home Sale Contingency?

HomeLight

Financing Contingency: If the buyer’s mortgage proceedings fall through, they can walk away from the home. Appraisal Contingency: If the appraisal fails to meet or exceed the purchase price, the buyer can back out of the contract (or, more often, renegotiate the purchase price). Offer a larger earnest money deposit.
