<div dir="ltr">As quickly as possible, the PC should let the buyer know before the buyer gets financing or does anything else in reliance.

Specific performance actions are expensive. An early disclosure would allow the buyer time to locate another home. <div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small;letter-spacing:normal"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(110,143,148);font-family:"Open Sans";white-space:pre-wrap"><b><font size="4">DOUGLAS W.
