This must be given to you (I usually put) 20 days after the title company receives a copy of the contract. 

The Survey Clause

Within 10 days after the Effective Date of this contract, the Seller shall furnish to the Buyer and the Title Company the Seller’s existing Survey of the Property and a Residential Real Property Affidavit. Therefore, if the seller fails, the buyer may terminate this contract and the earnest money will be refunded to the buyer.

Objections

Similarly, you have 10 days after receiving the title commitment to get out of the contract based on failure with schedule A, B or C. This is another option to get your earnest money back.

Property Conditions

Under the Property Conditions clause, always select the option that says “Buyer hasn’t received the Notice” in the Seller’s Disclosure Notice section. You should receive this notice. If you don’t, however, you can terminate the contract at any time prior to the closing. Consequently, the earnest money will be refunded to the Buyer.

Acceptance Of Property Condition

Neither party has to pay for lender required repairs if the parties do not agree to pay for these repairs or treatments, or if they exceed 5% of the sales price. The buyer can terminate the contract and the earnest money will be refunded to the buyer.
