The Financing condition is their contingency not yours. Therefore the Buyer has to seek more time or termintate the P&S--unless they want to risk losing the deposit.

The answer is probably yes, but I would speak with a lawyer and have the agreement reviewed carefully before taking any action. Misinterpreting your agreement or taking imprudent action could cost you thousands. Please don't hesitate to contact my office if you would like to schedule a consultation.
