Question for brokers, agents and anyone else familiar with closing escrow:
Are borrowers ALWAYS the ones responsible for paying an interest rate lock extension penalty when escrow fails to close on time (i.e. within the lock period)? What if the it is not the borrowers fault for escrow failing to close? For example: waiting for an HOA cert to be returned by the HOA?
Thanks!
