TWIRE S25 E47: Who Really Gets the Deposit When a Deal Falls Apart?

When a real estate deal falls apart, who actually gets the deposit? In this episode, Rob Golfi, Conrad Zurini, and Brian Hogben break down why the current deposit system is broken, how buyers and sellers get stuck in limbo, and why “mutual release” creates more problems than solutions. From missing sellers to hostage deposits and outdated rules, this is a raw, unfiltered conversation about what’s really happening behind the scenes in today’s real estate market.
