If the handling method of the deposit is determined in the subscription agreement, it cannot be refunded. If you are not sure, you can ask the developer to return it, because no formal contract has been signed, which means that both parties to the contract may not reach an agreement on the content of the agreement, and there may even be the possibility of not signing a house purchase contract in the end. Therefore, the conditions for the establishment of the "deposit" paid at the time of subscription have not been met, and the developer regards it as a "deposit", which does not conform to the principles of honesty, credit and fairness in the Contract Law.
