Contracts

A Nebraska purchase agreement is executed and earnest money is deposited. Before closing, the buyer decides they don't want to proceed. If there is no valid contingency, the seller's remedy for specific performance means the seller can:

AForce the buyer to purchase the property✓ Correct
BOnly keep the earnest money
CSue for the commission amount
DResell to another buyer immediately

Explanation

Specific performance is a court order compelling the defaulting party to fulfill their contractual obligations. For real estate (considered unique), courts may order a buyer to complete the purchase.
