: If a "contract" to purchase property from a "seller" is "cancelled" by the "seller" - should the attorney representing the "buyers" be allowed to do the following: : Request the "sellers" attorney to make the check payable to himself instead of the "buyers"; : Charge the "buyers" a "cancellation fee" for the "Title Search and Survey Search" which was requested by the attorney; : Automatically deduct these "cancellation fee" charges from the "buyers" downpayment monies. : : Please advise if this is an allowable, legitimate action on the part of the attorney who was to represent the "buyers" in the Real estate transaction. : Thank you and I look forward to your immediate response. : Mrs. Denise Torres-Vazquez
