I can tell you arbitration means NOTHING. My parents tried to go to arbitration with some guy over the sale of their house. Guy put down $3000 deposit and has still not bought the house. He was in default of the contract and we requested the deposit as stipulated in the contract. He signed for the certified letter telling him about the arbitration but simply ignored it. Now we have to get a lawyer and sue him the old fashion way.
i haven't heard that before about selling a house, what i do know is the deposit he left would be forefitted (you keep it), why waste the time and money on someone when you know your not going to get it. keep the 3000 and be done. But then again it does depend if he signed the papers and everything, but then agian most contracts give the buyer a certain amount of time to get out but they won't get there deposit back
