This is the great America. Anybody can sue any one for any reason. Good luck . Your chance isn't very high though, but the lawyers of both sides can surely win.

No such thing. Plenty of house are sold with law suits -- mostly class action. Although many lenders won't write a loan.
我感觉你花在房子上的费用应该由卖家补偿,比如loan related application fee, inspection fee. 还有如果你already made living arrangement。那么相关的损失也 应该得到赔偿。但是这个8000感觉很难说。问题一般都在于买房的合同对卖家保护得很 好。如果卖家反悔一般都没有相关的条约来惩罚他们。如果要打官司,一定到时候会翻 出合同来看的。你要仔细看合同。不要到时候花了时间和律师费还拿不到什么。
If the seller file the bankruptcy before the closing date. You will lose the case automatically. Even you won the law suite, how are you reasonably estimated the damage on your side?
If the seller already signed the contract to sell, you definitly have the right to sue. And the court will be on your side, especially the seller himself is a real estate agent. My brother was involed in a similar case as an agent for the buyer. The seller, also an agent, wanted to back out, maybe because of the rising house price. One letter from the lawyer, the seller agreed to sell.
First of all, for all buyers and sellers, please please follow all deadlines , terms and conditions of your contract, VERY strictly. All binding contracts may be forced by law unless you are able to get out of the contract legally. Here is the update: We won the case! The seller agrees on our demanding according to our finance damages, including: 1)out-of-pocket cost, including home inspection fee, appraisal fee, and loan application related fee. 2)extra renting. We minimized it to one month bec

Not at all. Except the initial $1000 which is included in our demand, the attorney will get 30% of the amount beyond 10K (total of our demand minus 10K).
我建议你找个税务专家问一下。IRS原文是这样的 (Pub 525) Include the following as ordinary income 5 Damages for Breach of contract Do not include in your income compensatory damages for personal physical injury or physical sickness. 你显然不是personal physical injury or physical sickness。
【在 S**********s 的大作中提到】 : 就这个问题我们专门问了律师,律师说因为finance damages from pain and : suffering,所以应该是not taxable的。 : : deduction也非常难判断。
