Got a question for you..
Wife and I make an offer on a house. The seller comes back and says doesn’t want to make it contingent upon appraisal. Wife and I then say no deal and walked away from it. So seller reaches back out this morning via his agent says he will accept our deal the way we have it written in the contract if we still wanted the house. We accept via our agent. So our agent and his agent have a text where she states he will accept our offer if we will still wanted the house. Our agent tells her we agree. She said deal and he said let me send an updated contract with today’s date. She says perfect. We all are at church before we can sign the ratified contract with today’s date she text back and said she got a verbal offer on the house. Our agent says sign this contract asap so we did. Now the seller has accepted the other offer after we sent in the signed contract. My question is this legal or does the seller have to sell us the house.
