Hi everyone,

I am relocating to a new state and city for work. I found a new construction home builder that is close to my new job and also a 5 minute commute to my family there. My wife and I liked a home we saw that’s a new construction going for $309,000 and offering a 4.99% fixed interest rate with 20% down. We sent them $2,500 in earnest money via the earnest website/app and began the pre approval process. My wife and I are now having second thoughts if we rushed into this and if there’s any possibility we can get our earnest money back. We’re also have other second thoughts on this opportunity being too good to pass up. Does anyone have any advice for us? This is all so nerve wrecking being a first time home buyer!
