- 5 - Pursuant to the First Addendum, petitioner paid $30,000 to Stewart Title Co. Petitioner then continued to seek financing for the purchase of Skylane Apartments. By October 19, 1990, petitioner was unable to obtain financing for the purchase of Skylane Apartments, and the Earnest Money Contract expired once again. At this time, petitioner thought that he still could obtain financing for the purchase of Skylane Apartments. Petitioner again convinced Mr. Suiter to extend the closing date of the Earnest Money Contract, this time from October 19, 1990 to November 19, 1990. As consideration for extending the closing date, petitioner agreed to tender to Mr. Suiter the $30,000 previously deposited in escrow with Stewart Title Co. By letter dated October 22, 1990, petitioner authorized Stewart Title Co. to disburse $30,000 to Mr. Suiter as consideration for extending the closing date of the Earnest Money Contract from October 19, 1990 to November 19, 1990. Although petitioner continued to seek financing for the purchase of Skylane Apartments, petitioner was once again unsuccessful. The sale of Skylane Apartments did not close by November 19, 1990. Once again, petitioner requested that Mr. Suiter extend the closing date. Mr. Suiter ultimately agreed to extend the closing date for an additional 30 days. However, Mr. Suiter required petitioner to sign a new addendum to the Earnest Money Contract (Second Addendum) and pay a $25,000 fee.
