Do I have to pay a deposit to buy a house?

Yes, you need to make a note when you pay the deposit by WeChat transfer. This can clearly record the purpose and specific information of the money, so as to prove the authenticity and legality of the transaction when necessary in the future. The remarks can indicate the specific address of the house to be delivered, and whether the money is down payment or full payment. In addition, "deposit" and "security deposit" are different in legal sense. If the deposit has been paid and the other party fails to perform it, it has the right to ask the other party to double indemnity, and the deposit can only be returned, not repaid twice. Therefore, in order to protect your rights and interests, it is a very important step to add comments when transferring money.
