The buyer finances a deposit that is used to show their commitment to the seller. That deposit is used as financial security to alleviate the damages done in light of the contract being breached.

This most commonly happens when the buyer backs out of the deal.

If the seller has spent money to accommodate the buyer in some capacity and the buyer becomes uninterested in the property, the seller can use the liquidated damages clause to finance their financial loss.

The deposit cannot be withdrawn from escrow without the consent of both parties.

So, the buyer and seller must both negotiate a fair disbursement of money. If they can't, then they must hire an arbitrator to settle the dispute.
