Question

Earnest Money on sale of inventory


Sent to General Experts August 07, 2006 11:59 p.m.

I asked for earnest money to secure the sale of my business inventory. The buyers want to hold the earnest money until closing and take it off like it is a down payment. How is earnest money usually done?   I was under the impression that they gave me the earnest money- non refundable- so that they would obtain my promise not to sale to other parties.
