A buyer can include any contingency he/she wants before agreeing to purchase a home. The seller does not have to accept these contingencies. He /she can negotiate or refuse the offer and wait for another buyer. If the seller accepts the contingencies, he/she must follow through. In this case, if the buyer cannot secure insurance the sale is no longer valid. Both parties move on. The seller must find another buyer.
