You can negotiate how much of an earnest deposit to pay with the seller, though many buyers donât realize that itâs negotiable. Two to three percent of the purchase price is a typical amount; so $6,000 to $9,000 may be requested for a $300,000 house.The typical percentage of earnest money deposit varies across the country and depending on the specific market conditions.n order for a contract to be legally valid, there must be an offer, consideration, and acceptance. The amount of consideration, in the form of the earnest money deposit, can be as little as $1, however, if accepted by the buyer.
HUD requires an earnest money deposit as low as $500 (for properties that sell for $50,000 or less) that must have been supplied to your real estate agent at the time of electronic bidding. This deposit will be submitted to the HUD Closing Agent immediately after your bid is acknowledged as the winning offer.
